Paul Ross, Vice President of American Waste Control, said, "Kenny and I are thrilled to bring back this beloved tradition of spreading Christmas joy for its 97th year. Tulsa Christmas Parade is all about celebrating with our community, and nothing fills our hearts more than the incredible marching bands. This year, we invite even more bands to join us and make the 2023 Tulsa Christmas Parade the most musical and magical one yet!”
This year's parade pays homage to the iconic character "Holly Berry," a creation by the talented artist Muriel Fahrion, who has left an undeniable mark on popular culture. Muriel Fahrion has become a cherished member of our vibrant Tulsa community. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, she embarked on a creative path that led to the birth of many beloved characters, captivating minds and hearts across generations.
Fahrion's artistic brilliance truly excelled during her time at American Greetings, where she breathed life into the beloved Strawberry Shortcake character in 1977. This groundbreaking creation marked the start of a remarkable journey, during which Fahrion's talent expanded to bring to life other cherished characters, including the endearing Care Bears and The Get Along Gang. Her artistic contributions continue to enchant and inspire people of all ages.
The parade is free and open to everyone, offering a heartwarming experience for families and friends. Make sure to mark your calendars and join us on December 9th at 11:00 AM to witness the wonder unfold in the heart of Oklahoma.
We also extend a special invitation to businesses and community groups from Tulsa and beyond to participate in this year's parade and share in the joy of the season.
