GREENVILLE, Ohio – Before you know it the most wonderful time of the year will be here! Main Street Greenville is gearing up for the 20th Original Hometown Holiday Horse Parade that will take place in downtown Greenville on Saturday, November 18, at 7 p.m. with the 20th Year Anniversary Celebration kicking off at 3PM to include, pony rides, petting zoo, horse trolley, spirits, dining, food trucks, holiday shopping, entertainment, and more!
Last year’s parade was magnificent with over 100 entrants. The annual tradition has kicked off downtown Greenville’s holiday season for two decades now with lighted horse-drawn carriages, hitches and riders. An estimated 8,000 spectators attended the event year after year which is why it’s been listed in Ohio Magazines best parade list 4 times in the last 10 years.
While the city provides approximately 20% of MSG’s operating budget, they count on business and individual donations to carry out all of the program and events in downtown Greenville. The support is crucial as they work to build community downtown and make Greenville a desirable place to live, work, play and visit!
