Mount Pleasant to hold annual nighttime light parade

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (WCBD) – Hundreds of brightly lit floats will travel along Coleman Boulevard on Sunday for the Town of Mount Pleasant’s Christmas light parade.

The town will welcome the holiday season with its annual nighttime parade featuring lights, marching bands, and dozens of community organizations.

Sunday’s parade begins at Live Oak Drive immediately following the fireworks display at 5:30 p.m. It can be viewed anywhere along W. Coleman Blvd. from Live Oak to the end at Patriots Point Road.
