The Parade of The Big Balloons Officially Canceled For 2020

Another Springfield holiday tradition is getting the axe this year due to coronavirus pandemic. Moments ago, Spirit of Springfield announced the annual "Parade of The Big Balloons" would pause for 2020. "We are saddened to see another tradition be cancelled. But it is for the safety and health of our community." said Judy Matt, President of Spirit of Springfield. The annual parade started in 1991, following Thanksgiving and features Springfield's very own "Cat In The Hat" inflatable and many other friends. While we'll have to take the "L" this year, I'm sure next year will be bigger, better and safer for everyone. Read more at spiritofspringfield.org
