Hunt for helpers for Hamilton Santa Parade

Thousands of people, young and old, flock to see the Santa Parade each year.

People of all ages are captivated by the vibrant floats, flamboyant costumes, theatrical performances, and, of course, the jolly man in the red suit.

This year, Hamilton's Santa Parade will be at 3pm on Sunday, December 9.

Parade organisers need helpers to ensure the event runs smoothly.

Organisers need help with traffic management, float direction, dressing characters, marshalling, walking with floats, and being characters in the parade.
