Next Saturday the 8th of November, one of the biggest events of the Adelaide calender will be occuring! The annual Christmas Pageant will take place on the streets of the city. The Christmas Pageant is the first event of the South Australian Christmas calender, and from now on you will see lots of decorations in the shops!!!
If you are coming into town on that day, you will find many roads closed, and the streets crowded with young excited children as they are going to see Father Christmas (Santa Clause) with his Reindeer and elves!
The parade begins at 9.30am, at the corner of South Terrace and King William Street, and takes about an hour for the full parade to pass a point. The parade is telecast on the television on Saturday morning, and replayed Saturday afternoon!
If you want to see this parade, you will need to get into the city early on saturday, so that you can get a good spot. You will notice that there is a blue line on the city streets, and spectators need to stay behind this line. Children are allowed to go to the front so that they can see.
