The little town of Somerville has some of the most Holiday Spirit seen in New Jersey! Going on their thirteenth consecutive year of the Holiday Lights Parade, this year was the best one yet. Including over 100 first responder volunteers, and over 70 trucks, with Santa Claus visiting as well, this year definitely took the first place prize. The parade is hosted by the Somerville Fire Department and took place on December 2, 2024. Taking a carefully thought out route that highlights not only the major streets in town, but back through the small communities it gives everyone the opportunity to watch this spectacular parade. Going on for a solid half hour it is really a don’t miss if you live in the area! We just cannot wait to see what they have in store for next year! Happy Holidays!
