This year, the Elgin Chamber of Commerce Christmas Parade was held on Tuesday, Dec. 3. Things kicked off at 7 p.m. and crowds were already lined up just before the parade started.

Elgin's Mayor, JJ Franscias, said there was a reason the parade wasn't held on a weekend. "This year's Christmas parade was held on a Tuesday to accomodate the schedule of the award winning Pride of Elgin Band." Holding the parade during the week allowed the Band to be able to participate in the parade.

This year's annual parade was an incredible success. Over 30 participants dressed up or crafted incredible Christmas themed floats and tossed candy to the crowds.

The parade was just one opportunity to celebrate Christmas in Elgin. For more updates on local events, you should visit the Elgin Chamber of Commerce Facebook page or inqure on their website. Check out the photos of this year's "An Elgin Christmas" parade below.
