SANTA’S ARRIVAL PARADE

One Night Only!
November 29 at 7 pm

Santa only arrives once and only to Snowflake Lane at The Bellevue Collection!

Snowflake Lane happens every night, but Santa only arrives once to kick it all off.  Join us Friday November 23 at 7:00 pm for the Santa Arrival Parade and Snowflake Lane.  The new parade route starts on NE 8th at the Bellevue Place and Lincoln Square skybridge and winds down Bellevue Way past Macy’s then back to the Hyatt.

Following the parade, Santa will arrive at Belleuve Place Wintergarden! Join us for cookies and cocoa, a meet and greet with Santa, pictures with the Snowflake Lane Characters and holiday entertainment.

*A great place for families to view the parade would be a spot on NE 8th. See more insider tips below the map.
