There will be a Whoville-themed Holiday Parade Friday evening in Coachella and will conclude at Veterans’ Memorial Park with family-friendly activities.
The parade, which will feature Desert Community College District Area 2 Trustee Bea Gonzalez, will begin at 6 p.m. on Cesar Chavez Street and Westerfield Way. Residents can gather along the street and then meet at Veterans’ Memorial Park, 1500 Fourth St., where it’s set to conclude and will be followed by other activities. An ice slide, carnival rides, a live DJ and food vendors will be available at the park for families to enjoy.
The city’s holiday season officially began last week with its annual Christmas Tree Lighting event in front of City Hall. It featured a variety of musical performances, a recognition of the 2023 Hometown Heroes, free food and giveaways.
