San Fernando Christmas Parade 2026
The purpose of agendizing this item is to present a proposal for the return of the San Fernando Christmas Parade 2026, which would mark the revival of a beloved community tradition that has not been held in many years. The item requests City Council consideration of EMPRENDE as the official organizing entity responsible for planning, coordinating, and producing the event in partnership with the City.
EMPRENDE has demonstrated a strong commitment to community engagement, cultural programming, and economic development through events that bring residents, businesses, and community organizations together. Designating EMPRENDE as the official organizer would provide a dedicated and experienced community partner to lead the effort while working collaboratively with City staff, public safety agencies, local schools, businesses, and community groups.
The return of the Christmas Parade presents an opportunity to strengthen community pride, celebrate the City's diversity and traditions, increase visibility for local businesses, and create a family friendly event that encourages residents and visitors to gather in the spirit of the holiday season. As the first parade in many years, the event has the potential to become a signature annual tradition that reflects the values and identity of the City of San Fernando. ✔
City Council consideration and direction are requested regarding the designation of EMPRENDE as the official organizing entity and the development of a partnership framework necessary to successfully implement the San Fernando Christmas Parade 2026.
