Auckland Farmers Santa Parade
Nov 29th, 2009
2:00PM
One of the city's favourite annual events, the Farmers Santa Parade was launched in 1947. Anyone who grew up in Auckland will remember standing in sweltering heat waiting in eager anticipation for the parade to start. It takes 50 minutes for the floats and some 4,000 performers to pass. The parade is followed by a party for the children in Aotea Square. This includes activities and prizes, entertainment on stage, and a visit by Santa and celebrities.
