Henderson Rotary is proud to be running this year’s Westgate_mg_5907-m Santa Parade on
Saturday 1st December 2018, starting at 10am. 

The parade is organised by Henderson Rotary Club with support from NZ Retail Property Group (owners of Westgate) and with financial support from The Henderson-Massey Local Board.

Following the success of last year, this year the focus has been placed around creating another family orientated event, with the aim of bringing
together the community to enjoy this fun day out.

The Santa Parade will start the day off at 10am and is expected to take no longer than 40 minutes to complete the route, which is just over 1km long mostly on level ground. This will be followed by a range of entertainment  for the family, including carnival rides, bouncy castles, food stalls, carnival games, face painting, balloonist and an opportunity to meet your favourite character.

There will also be a range of spot prizes which will be handed out by a well know radio station throughout the day. The Santa Parade is free to enter, and the entertainment afterwards will be a gold coin donation with all proceeds going to our chosen charity.
