The Christmas Pageant marks the start of the festive season tomorrow morning, bringing excitement to the city. However, road users are advised to plan their journeys carefully due to several closures across the CBD.
Major roads will be closed from early morning until the afternoon as over 300,000 spectators are expected to attend the annual event.
This year, the Pageant will follow its traditional path, beginning at South Terrace. It will then progress to King William Street, trace the western edge of Tarntanyangga, proceed through Reconciliation Plaza, Wakefield Street, Pulteney Street, North Terrace, and conclude at Beehive Corner.
“The Christmas Pageant brings huge numbers to the city each year so road closures will be in place tomorrow morning to keep everyone safe,” said Charles Mountain, RAA Senior Manager Safety and Infrastructure.
“On-street parking will be as rare as a white Christmas, so check for off-street options and allow plenty of extra time if you’re driving to the Pageant.”
