Santa Claus Seen in Murrieta

Join us on weeknights through December 14 between the hours of 5:30 pm and 9 pm at the nearest white star painted on the
street. “Here Comes Santa Claus” will be played in your neighborhood before the arrival of the parade. Santa
will be accompanied by a holiday choir, Rudolph, and a Jolly Elf. He will be traveling down the major street(s)
of various tracts in our city. Canned goods and new, unwrapped toy will be collected at each stop for local
families in need. Come out and experience our Holiday Magic Parade.

Through December 20 the city will be collecting
new, unwrapped toys and canned goods for local agencies to distribute to families in need in our community this holiday season. You may drop off items at any of the five fire stations, the Community Center, the Senior Center, or City Hall. Additionally, when you see Santa coming through your neighborhood to visit your star, you may donate your toys or canned goods to one of Santa’s helpers. If you would like to donate gift cardsfrom local fast food, grocery, or discount stores, please call (951) 304-7275. Let's make this holiday special for everyone this year!
