This year's parade theme was "Spreading Christmas Joy” and Clifford the Big Red Dog was chosen as Grand Marshal by patients at Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU.

“We are thrilled to welcome Clifford as this year’s Grand Marshal,” Parade Director Tara Daudani said. “Clifford’s message of kindness, friendship, and care for his community perfectly reflects our goal of spreading joy—especially to children and families who need it most. We can’t wait for the moment Clifford and his friends wave to the kids at CHoR as the parade reaches them.”

Clifford was joined by his PBS KIDS friends, including Rosie from "Rosie’s Rules," Lyla from "Lyla in the Loop," Lily from "Weather Hunters" and "Super Why."

The updated parade route began as normal at the Science Museum of Virginia, travels down Broad Street, then shifts to 10th Street to pass by the hospital so patients, families and staff can watch.

This year’s parade lineup also featured Legendary Santa, colorful balloons, marching bands, dance troupes and much more.

The tradition, which is free and open to the public, attracted tens of thousands of people from across the state and thousands more tuned in for the TV and online broadcasts.
