The Muskogee Christmas Parade brings marching bands and winter-themed floats through downtown Muskogee on the first Saturday night of December.

It is a community parade made for all ages, and an easy pairing with a slow drive through the Garden of Lights afterward.

Parent tip: After the floats pass, drive up to Honor Heights Park for the Garden of Lights. Saturday hours run until 11 pm.

Drive-through lights

Garden of Lights at Honor Heights Park

Expand to see the parent tip

Muskogee’s Garden of Lights turns 130 acres of Honor Heights Park into a drive-through display of more than 1.2 million lights, with animated scenes of deer, squirrels and birds among the trees.

The park’s famous rose and azalea bushes are lit in color to mimic their spring bloom. Groups can also book a hayride through the lights in advance.

Parent tip: Monday nights are free, and weeknights move faster than weekends. Concessions are open 5:30 to 9 pm.

A story for the drive home

A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.
