ELECTRIC PARADE
As one of the most dazzling highlights of the South Pole Illuminated Festival, the Driscoll Electric Parade lights up McAllen’s holiday season with brilliance and joy.
Happening Friday through Sunday at 8:30 PM, this radiant spectacle features the festival’s signature light-up spinning floats, known as “Trompitos”, illuminating the night in a whirl of color and motion. Each evening’s parade culminates with the breathtaking Above Beyond Fireworks, proudly presented by the McAllen International Airport—a true finale of wonder above Oval Park.
Best of all, the Driscoll Electric Parade is included with your South Pole Illuminated Festival admission, inviting families and friends to line up along the park and experience one of McAllen’s most beloved holiday traditions.
