38th Annual Light Parade

As the holiday season approaches, the Glendive Chamber of Commerce is busy preparing several exciting community events to spread festive cheer and encourage support for local businesses.
The 38th Annual Light Parade, one of the Chamber’s most beloved traditions, will take place on November 29th at 7 p.m. This year’s theme, A Country Christmas, promises to be a fun and festive display of lighted floats—a perfect way to kick off the holiday season. The parade will begin at the high school, travel down Merrill Avenue, and end at the EPEC parking lot. Santa Claus, leading the parade in the Chamber’s float, will join the celebration at Our Park after the parade. Residents can also enjoy a performance by the Chamber Chorale at the park’s gazebo and admire a new light display organized by the Hood family. Yellowstone Boys and Girls Ranch will offer hot chocolate and host their Angel Tree program, allowing community members to purchase Christmas gifts for children in need.
Coinciding with the parade is the launch of the Chamber’s Keep the Cheer Here campaign, which encourages residents to shop locally throughout the holiday season. This initiative supports Glendive’s small businesses and features the Keep the Cheer Here Christmas Guide, a booklet filled with ads from local shops. The guide will be distributed during the parade and is available to both Chamber members and non-members for advertising. Shoppers who participate in the campaign will also have a chance to win Chamber Bucks, redeemable at Glendive businesses.
Adding to the holiday spirit, the Chamber is offering festive window clings for businesses to purchase, helping to create a unified holiday look across town while promoting the shop-local message.
Our goal is to bring the community together during the holidays and remind everyone of the value in supporting local businesses.
For more information on participating in the parade, purchasing window clings, or placing an ad in the Christmas Guide, contact the Chamber office at (406) 377-5601 or via email at glendivechamber@gmail.com.
