The holiday season is here, and we are thrilled to share something extra special for 2026—our brand-new Santa Parade Tracker! This year, we’re using a new tracking system that will allow everyone in the Township of Marple to follow Santa in real time as he makes his festive journey through our community on Saturday, December 6th.
🎄 A Magical Route Through Marple
Santa’s route has been thoughtfully planned to bring joy to as many neighborhoods as possible. With his schedule busier than ever, our goal is to make sure families all across town get a chance to wave, cheer, and share in the holiday magic as Santa passes by.
But don’t worry—if Santa doesn’t come down your street, you’ll still have a wonderful opportunity to see him later in the evening. After the parade, head over to the Marple Township Christmas Tree Lighting at Veterans Park. Festivities kick off around 6:00pm, with Santa arriving around 6:45pm, and a beautiful fireworks display to follow. It’s one of our favorite holiday traditions and a perfect way to end a festive day.
✉️ Don’t Forget Your Letters to Santa!
Throughout the parade, we’ll be collecting letters for Santa. Every letter will be delivered to Mailman Jim, who will make sure they reach Santa’s workshop at the North Pole. Be sure to bring yours and drop it off when Santa passes by!
📍 Track Santa Live!
You can follow Santa’s location starting around 4:00pm using the link below. The parade officially begins at 4:30pm, so gather your family, bundle up, and get ready for an evening of holiday cheer.

🚒 Morning Fun at the Broomall Fire Company
Before Santa tours the township, he’ll be spending the morning at the Broomall Fire Company, 1 North Malin Road, from 10:00am–1:00pm. Families are invited to stop by for:
- 📸 Photos with Santa
- ✍️ Letter writing stations
- 🚒 A chance to explore the fire trucks
- 🎁 Toys for Tots donation collection (all-day)
This event is a beloved community favorite and a wonderful way to kick off your holiday celebrations. Bring the whole family and enjoy a festive morning with our firefighters, EMTs, and first responders.
We can’t wait to celebrate the holiday season with all of you. Thank you to the Marple Township Police Department, Marple Township Ambulance Corps, and everyone at the Broomall Fire Company for helping make this event possible year after year.
Let’s make 2026 our most magical Santa parade yet! 🎅🎁🌟
