Bill leads Zebulon to replace Christmas parade with 'Deck the Hall-Z' event
By Destinee Patterson , WRAL reporter
The town of Zebulon has fleshed out plans for a holiday celebration to replace the annual Christmas parade.
The town announced last month that new legal limits on parades would force the change. After the death of a child in the Raleigh Christmas Parade in 2022, the North Carolina state legislature has proposed age requirements, safety inspections, and license verifications for floats.
Zebulon's Deck the Hall-Z Holiday Celebration on the evening of Friday, Dec. 8 will include:
- Reverse parade: Entries will stand still while visitors can walk among them, collecting sweet treats
- Decorated forest of Christmas trees
- Candy cane drop
- Classic car show
- Live music and performances from school bands, local dance troupes and choirs
- Toy drive to pack Santa's sleigh
- A heart-warming holiday film, suitable for all ages
- Local food and drink available for purchase.
Admission is free for all.
