Bluff Park Christmas Parade: What To Know
The fifth annual Bluff Park Christmas Parade has been moved, but plans are to allow the parade to proceed in spite of the pandemic.
HOOVER, AL — The coronavirus pandemic has forced many of the Birmingham metro's holiday traditions to either cancel or adjust to different protocol, and that applies to Bluff Park's Christmas Parade this year.
The parade would have occurred this Saturday, but preparations have forced the parade to be pushed back to December 12, starting at 10 a.m.
Organizers ask that people driving to Bluff Park to watch the parade park at Shades Crest Baptist Church and Bluff Park Elementary School.
