Get ready for festive fun as the Orewa New World Santa Parade kicks off on Saturday, November 25, at 4.30 pm (rain date November 26).

Remember, no parking on Alice or Edward Ave on parade day.

Plan your route accordingly, with road closures from 8 am to 6 pm on Alice Ave and Edward Ave, and from 4 pm to 6 pm on Florence Ave (from Centreway Rd) and Hibiscus Coast Highway Florence Ave to Centreway.

If you're feeling merry and can spare a couple of hours, Destination Orewa is on the lookout for parade route marshals from 3.30 pm to 5.30 pm.

Let the holiday cheer begin!
