Light up the night and lead the holiday cheer at the GM Financial Parade of Lights on Sunday, November 22!

Thank you to everyone who applied. While registration for this year is officially closed, here is a preview of what we will be looking for next year:

We are officially looking for the boldest, brightest, and most creative entries to join this year’s GM Financial Parade of Lights. Whether you are a school, marching band, competitive dance troupe, arts group, family, or solo performer, this is your chance to turn your truck, flatbed, bicycle, or walking group into an illuminated masterpiece.

The success of the GM Financial Parade of Lights relies entirely on the artistic brilliance of our entries, and the more imaginative your use of lights and spectacle, the higher your chance of acceptance.

We are focused more than ever on the quality of our entries. Last year, we received over 150 applications for the 100 available entries!

Please check out our Parade Policies before submitting your application.
