Mission:

Holiday Extravaganza Parade's mission is to bring together Oakland County's cities and townships to share together in celebration of the holiday season in the heart of Oakland County.

History:

The Greater Pontiac Host Committee has coordinated and provided leadership to a Christmas parade in Pontiac since 1981 which, at that time, included one fire truck from the City of Pontiac and one high school marching band.

Today, The Greater Pontiac Host Committee formed a 501c3 organization and now consists of an Advisory Board, Community Partner Committee and the Strategic Leadership Committee, which coordinates all the fundraising and organizational needs for all aspects of the Holiday Extravaganza Parade, as well as the Children WinterArt Festival and Gallery of Ice.
