Don't miss Milwaukee's big parade

When is the Milwaukee Holiday Parade 2014?

Here in Racine, we get into the holiday spirit nice and early. That's why our own holiday parade for 2014 is already done and over with (don't worry -- there are still plenty of highly festive community events around the bend in case you missed it!) If you're looking for an even bigger parade to attend now that your appetite for festive holiday events has been thoroughly whetted, it may be worth your while to head on up to Milwaukee to participate in their festivities as well. So, when is the Milwaukee Holiday Parade 2014? Where is it? What else is there to know about it? We've got all the details for you right here!  We'll start with the date and time so you can clear your calendar: The Milwaukee Holiday Parade 2014 takes place on Saturday November 22, and it begins at 9:30am. That's the Saturday before Thanksgiving, so it won't interrupt your big shopping weekend one bit! Next up, of course, is the location: The parade is going to start on Kilbourn Avenue & Astor Street, moving west to Old World 3rd Street and there it'll turn left and make its way south to Wisconsin Avenue. The parade concludes in front of The Shops of Grand Avenue, which right on the corner of Old World 3rd Street and Wisconsin Avenue. The next item of business, of course, is where to park your car. Here's a comprehensive parking map for the city of Milwaukee -- otherwise come extra early, grab a spot at The Shops at Grand Avenue, and grab breakfast before parade! What to bring? Well, in addition to plenty of warm clothes for what'll undoubtedly be a chilly Wisconsin morning, everyone is encouraged to bring as much non-perishable food items as your little mittens can carry -- shopping carts manned by Johnson Controls volunteers will be on hand to collect all the goods, which will benefit Hunger Task Force's Food for Families. All your friends here at Palmen Racine wish you a safe, happy, and festive holiday season!
