Welcome America to the exciting and wonderful 4th Annual Holiday Promenade of Stars™ - the colorful and fun-filled Christmas event of the year presenting top name stars, fabulous music, traditional songs, marching bands, glorious floats, and more. We are so excited to join you in kicking off the season with the joys of the holidays.

It's time for some good old midwest hospitality, and the best down home entertainment that the heartland has to offer...that includes top TV talent and amazing performers from across the country. The streets will be filled again with thousands of happy holiday spectators returning to enjoy more captivating parade performances, great entertainment, and visual delights.

This year one of television's hottest TV hosts, Mario Lopez from host of "Extra" on Warner Brothers Television and CW Network, "Dancing with the Stars", Pet Star", and "Saved by the Bell" will be our designated host for the parade.

The parade will also feature stars from some of the nations hottest shows, popular recording stars, special cameos, breathtaking floats, and giant balloons sponsored by national businesses and advertisers. Our contributors really appreciate a great show that can air twice in the holiday season.

Every year, the Holiday Promenade of the Stars™ continues to grow in it's visual dynamics and dazzling presentation as it continues to hold the honor of being the only heartland parade of its kind to be broadcast nationally.
