Beginning November 25th, onlookers can “experience the wonder of falling snow, dazzling lights, festive music, toy drummers, and dancers” in Bellevue’s complimentary nightly parade of holiday floats. You’re invited to line the sidewalks between Bellevue Square and Lincoln Square from NE 4th to NE 8th Streets every night at 7 pm.

Besides the stunning nightly parade, you can also enjoy a tree-lighting ceremony on the 25th of November. If you miss the official lighting ceremony you can still view the tree and its 30 feet of glory at the Bellevue Place Wintergarden.

You can also visit the Snowflake Lane Factory for photos with Santa although keep in mind you need to make reservations beforehand.
