Christmas parade has been canceled

Nov. 4—The Owensboro-Daviess County Christmas Parade is off again.

On Oct. 8, the parade committee announced that the parade, which was canceled last year because of the coronavirus pandemic, would be a little different when it returned on Nov. 20.

It would be a "reverse parade."

The floats would remain stationary along Second Street and people would walk along the street looking at them from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

But Wednesday, the committee announced that the parade is canceled.

"Last evening, the parade committee met to review the plans for this year's event, and after much thought and consideration, we have decided to cancel the 2021 Christmas Parade event," the statement said.
