Franklin still accepting Light Up Night parade entries

The City of Franklin is hoping to look for additional holiday enthusiasts to help brighten up the seasonal kickoff as participants in the annual Light-Up Night parade. 

This year’s theme is “Feel the Love of Christmas.” Let the love of Christmas fill your heart! Decorate your float with anything that brings love and joy to your heart at Christmastime.
​
The parage will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday, November 19. Line-up for vehicles will be 5 p.m. and for walkers at 5:30 p.m.

Prizes will be given to the top three entries in each division. First place is $200, second is $125 and third is $100. The divisions are Churches and Schools; Business, Industry, Retail Division; Service Organizations (Non Profits, Clubs, etc.); Miscellaneous; Decorated Vehicles and/or Walkers. There will also be a $300 prize for the entry with the brightest lights and most sparkle.

​Registration packets are available on the city’s website.

PLEASE NOTE: The parade highlight is Santa Claus on Tower 9 at the end. Please refrain from using Santa on your float so the children are not confused. ​
