Fountain Hills will once again host its annual Thanksgiving Day Parade, a community tradition since 1984.

Hosted by the Fountain Hills Chamber of Commerce, the 2025 parade will take place Thursday, Nov. 27, from 9:30 to 11 a.m., bringing together families, visitors and parade lovers from across the state.

This year’s theme, “The Greatest Show,” invites participants to showcase bold, circus-inspired creativity. According to a Chamber press release, participants are encouraged to embrace the circus-theme through imaginative decorations, vibrant colors and show-stopping designs.

The Thanksgiving Day Parade has long been a hometown favorite, offering a festive start to the holiday with a classic lineup of local businesses, veteran groups, service organizations, marching bands, classic cars, dance troupes and more.

Spectators can expect lively performances and colorful displays along the parade route.

A highlight for many attendees is the arrival of Santa Claus, who makes his first Fountain Hills appearance of the holiday season at the parade’s grand finale. Families are invited to stay through the end to give Santa a warm welcome as he ushers in the holiday spirit.
