About Us
How it started
Meet Murray Leaning and Hayden Rose.
After the Nelson City Council made the decision to cancel the annual Santa Parade in 2020, these two decided to take things into their own hands and do something about it: throw their own Santa Parade.
Now, there's a new Santa Parade Trust and a bunch of volunteers dedicating themselves to making Christmas in Nelson magical once again!
