The Greater Sudbury Santa Claus Parade is coming up this Saturday.
But you don't have to wait until the parade itself starts to have some family-friendly fun in downtown Sudbury. The Santa Watch Party runs in the downtown from 2-5:30 p.m. (when the parade begins).
It includes festival foods, Jumper the Clown, free wagon rides (2-5 p.m.), children's activities (including Let's Talk Science, A Maze N Fun and inflatables) and live entertainment.
This year's Greater Sudbury Santa Claus Parade has a new, shorter route.
