Tomorrow, Saturday, at 17:00, the Christmas parade will take place, starting from Avenida García Barbón (near the Isaac Peral junction) and ending at Santiago de Vigo (at the intersection with República Argentina street). The parade will stretch over 300 metres and feature more than 250 participants.
This event, which precedes the lighting of the Christmas decorations, will last approximately one hour, covering a distance of 880 metres at a slow pace with various entertainment stops along the way. It is designed for all audiences and will showcase stories from Disney+, including Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, and Hulu.
The procession will include over 20 giant inflatable figures, some reaching heights of up to 12 metres, inspired by iconic characters and stories. Among these will be Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story, Olaf from Frozen, the chef's hat from MasterChef Junior, the Infinity Gauntlet from the Avengers films, and a giant shark inspired by National Geographic.
The scenery will also feature large figures over 4 metres tall and vehicles inspired by various titles and universes from Disney+, including Los Testamentos, The Devil Wears Prada, and National Geographic.
In addition to the parade, there will be an animation show with snow effects, special activations, choreographies, and dancers. Live music will play a significant role, featuring two groups performing a selection of iconic soundtracks, from Toy Story to The Simpsons. The programme will include participation from Galician groups and local talent from Vigo, including marching bands and skaters from the Coruxo Artistic Skating Club.
The mayor stated that “this is an event created especially for Vigo” and encouraged citizens not to miss this festive occasion.
