Stop by the Keck Observatory booth for hot cocoa at the 65th Waimea Twilight Christmas Parade on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at 6p. This year’s theme is A Waimea Christmas Birthday Celebration.

The parade route is the same as last year and will begin with units leaving Waimea Park onto Kawaihae Road (across from Habitat for Humanity’s RESTORE), turning left onto Kawaihae Road, then right onto Lindsey Road to the main intersection. The parade will turn left onto Mamalahoa Hwy (Hwy 19), pass through the town center, turn right on Pukalani, right on Ala ʻOhia, and conclude at the Kalani Schutte Waimea District Park.

Spectators are asked to please stay on the sidewalk or grass and off the roadway; no open fires/barbecues/hibachis to prevent wildfires; and please do not throw candy from parade units for everyone’s safety!
