Elkton-Todd County Bicentennial Christmas Parade

The annual Christmas Parade in Elkton, Kentucky will have a new theme this year to celebrate the
Elkton and Todd County Bicentennial in 2020. The “Elkton-Todd County Bicentennial Christmas
Parade” will be held on Saturday, December 12, 2020 in Elkton.
The parade will leave Todd County Central High School on South Main Street at 5 PM and head north
towards Public Square, exiting the Square on West Main Street and ending at the intersection of Streets
Avenue where floats will disperse. Please note traffic will be blocked to Public Square starting around
4:30 PM until the parade is over.
The parade will feature floats and entries from individuals, local businesses, schools and churches.
Participants are encouraged to decorate their float or entry with a historical bicentennial theme
celebrating Elkton and/or Todd County’s past from the years 1820 through 2020. For those that choose
to have a historical bicentennial themed entry, there will be awards given recognizing the Most
Creative Entry and Most Historical Entry.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the parade organizers ask that everyone attending the ceremony
observe recommended social distancing guidelines to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus and to
wear a face covering while attending the event. Also, there will not be a public event held at the
Milliken Memorial Community House after the parade. However, you are encouraged to visit our local
businesses who will be having special sales and other events both before and after the parade.
