Along Manitoba Ave. between Main and Eveline and End at the Selkirk Waterfront | Free to watch, Free to participate
To celebrate Holiday Alley’s 10th anniversary, we’re launching a new community tradition, the Holiday Alley Lantern Parade! This exciting new event will bring more light to Selkirk’s historic downtown while celebrating light, art, culture, and creativity!
Our 2026 Lantern Parade theme is WATER inspired by all the ways water shapes life in our region.
Participants might create lanterns that reflect:
– The shape of water – rain, snowflakes, ice, frost, rivers and waves, etc.
– What lives on and with the water – catfish, pelicans, frogs, turtles, and water bugs, etc.
– How people use water – canoeing, fishing, skating, boating, wetlands, etc.
Lanterns can be made of natural and recycled materials! Just remember to use battery-operated lights instead of candles to keep your lantern safe throughout the parade.
