2015 Shop Local Raleigh Christmas Parade entry!!!

 

The 71st Annual WRAL Raleigh Christmas Parade is televised live on WRAL-TV & UNC-TV with approximately 250,000 viewers and more than 65,000 people come to the streets of downtown Raleigh to see it firsthand. It’s the largest parade between Atlanta and D.C. – a great way to give your business exposure.

 

Shop Local Raleigh has a float custom made to highlight our upcoming holiday marketing program: Where’s Walter.

 

MANY of you have begged for us to once again allow you to have a shopping cart entry or for you to be a gift package.  In response, we have decided to allow you to have a cart or be a present with our entry! If you would like to participate WITH Shop Local Raleigh in the parade, you have the choice of bringing a decorated shopping cart representing your business or making yourself a "present/box" with your store info on the present.

**You are responsible for securing your own shopping cart or cardboard box should you choose to participate.**
