2026 Jingle Bell Parade

The Grand Haven Coast Guard Festival is excited to carry on the tradition of the Grand Haven Jingle Bell Parade! 🎄🔔

The holiday fun returns in 2026, with the same festive date and parade route you know and love—but now with the Grand Haven Coast Guard Festival team at the helm!

We invite businesses, organizations, families, community groups, marching units, decorated vehicles and all things merry to join us and help make the Jingle Bell Parade bigger, brighter and more festive than ever.

Whether you’re decking out a float, decorating a vehicle, dressing in your holiday best or simply bringing some Christmas cheer, we want you in the parade!

There is no better way to kick off the holiday season than with a little Jingle Bell Parade magic!
