Palm Coast — The City of Palm Coast, in collaboration with Flagler Schools, is excited to announce the return of the beloved Starlight Parade on Saturday, December 16, 2023, at 11 a.m.! This year’s event promises to be an unforgettable celebration of community spirit.
This year’s parade has a fresh new location! We are thrilled to present the Starlight Parade on Belle Terre Parkway in front of Belle Terre Elementary and Indian Trails Middle School. Plus, there will be ample parking available at both schools, and the excitement begins with pre-parade activities starting at 9 a.m. There will be games, food trucks, and a lot of fun! This move to a new venue ensures the safety of all our viewers and participants.
After a hiatus of three years, the return of the in-person Starlight Parade is a momentous occasion. This cherished tradition is not just a parade; it’s a symbol of community resilience and togetherness. The City of Palm Coast and Flagler Schools are proud to bring this celebration to life once again, providing a platform for our community to come together, share joy, and create lasting memories.
