The 13th annual River of Light Lantern Parade will take place on Saturday, December 3rd at 5:00 PM. The parade will start at Brookside Primary School, head down Stowe Street and then right on Main Street to Dac Rowe where there will be hot chocolate, bonfires, and the Cirque de Fuego fire spinners. This year's theme is Marvelous Magic and we have some wonderfully magical lanterns in store for you.

This event would not be possible without our sponsors, the Harwood Unified Union School District, Waterbury Winterfest, The Alchemist, Ben and Jerry's, and Billing's Mobil. Thanks also the the Waterbury Recreation Department, the countless volunteers and others who have donated to this event. Up to date information can be found at https://www.ariveroflightinwaterbury.org/ .

Please remember that there will be road closures along the parade route from 4:55 - 5:30 that evening.
