Abbotsford — Home of the Christmas Parade
At 7:30 p.m. on the first Saturday in December, Abbotsford becomes "Storybook Land" as the annual Christmas parade unfolds on Main Street. The night time parade features favorite cartoon, fantasy and storybook characters, lighted floats, clowns, and Puff The Magic Dragon. Hundreds of volunteers are needed to carry off this event and the entire community gets involved in one way or the other.

The parade is supported entirely by donations from the community and does not allow commercialization to detract from this Christmas "gift" to everyone in the Central Wisconsin area. Despite the sometimes freezing weather, the parade draws thousands of spectators annually.
