McAllen’s biggest, brightest and most anticipated event of the holiday season was held on Saturday, Dec. 2, 2017 at 6:00 p.m. The largest illuminated holiday and helium balloon parade began at McAllen Veterans Memorial Stadium then ran south on Bicentennial Boulevard. More than a quarter million people showed up to see the star-studded lineup that included majestic floats, illuminated bands and larger-than-life character balloons. This year’s theme was “The Magic of Christmas.” If you missed the McAllen Holiday Parade, here is your chance to take a look back at the spectacular illuminated holiday parade that was named Best in the State by TFEA and Best in the World by IFEA.
