Reasor’s Tulsa Christmas Parade Announces Grand Marshal, Theme, and the Poster Reveal for 99th Year
The Reasor’s Tulsa Christmas Parade, presented by American Waste Control, announces details for its 99th year, set to take place on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. in downtown Tulsa.
This year’s theme, “OklaHOME for Christmas with The Church Studio,” celebrates the warmth of the holiday season while honoring Tulsa’s rich musical heritage. Teresa Knox, CEO of The Church Studio and community champion for arts and culture, has been named Grand Marshal. Under Knox’s leadership, The Church Studio has been restored as both a world-renowned recording space and a living tribute to the Tulsa Sound, making her a fitting figurehead for this year’s celebration.

The parade will also unveil its official 2025 poster art created by Oklahoma graphic artist Randy Riggs. The piece reflects imagery inspired by the lyrics of “OklaHOME for Christmas”, a new original holiday song written and performed by Tulsa-based singers/songwriters VOTH and Audra Mae and commissioned and recorded at The Church Studio this year. The song is set for release on November 1st across all streaming platforms.
“Reasor’s is proud to be a part of this long-standing, cherished Christmas tradition,” said Brad Brookshire, Chairman and CEO of Brookshire Grocery Company. “Reasor’s has proudly supported the Tulsa community since 1963, and we are thrilled to bring the joy of this holiday season to the heart of downtown Tulsa.”
“For nearly a century, the Tulsa Christmas Parade has been a cherished tradition that unites people from across Oklahoma,” said Paul Ross, Vice President of American Waste Control. “With Reasor’s as our Title Sponsor, this year’s parade will shine even brighter as we celebrate the true spirit of home—where memories are made, traditions are shared, and often marked by the songs of Christmas we all know and love.”
First held in 1926, the Tulsa Christmas Parade has grown to become one of the state’s most beloved holiday traditions. Tens of thousands of spectators line the streets of downtown Tulsa each December to experience festive floats, marching bands, and Santa Claus himself.
