Run. Walk. Jingle. Parade!

Beaumont, it's time to get merry! The inaugural Beaumont Santa Dash is a festive ½-mile holiday run/walk that kicks off the Blizzard Bash Christmas Light Parade in spectacular fashion.

Grab your Santa suit, Christmas pajamas, ugly sweater, Grinch gear, elf ears, reindeer antlers or whatever makes you merry and join hundreds of holiday-loving participants as we take over the parade route before the floats and lights roll through! You don't have to be Santa to join the Santa Dash! Come dressed as Santa, Mrs. Claus, an elf, the Grinch, a reindeer, a Christmas tree, a snowman, your favorite holiday character, or simply your most festive self.

This isn't about speed - It's about fun, costumes, community and kicking off Christmas together!
