Nashville’s holiday season began officially last Saturday with the 62nd annual Piedmont Natural Gas Nashville Christmas Parade. Newly elected Mayor Megan Barry was on hand along with this year’s Grand Marshal, Singer-songwriter Jana Kramer.

Floats and bands streamed down a different route than previous years, beginning at the intersection of 8th Avenue and Broadway, heading east down Broadway to Second Avenue North, crossing over the Cumberland River and ending at the base of the Woodland Street Bridge.

The theme this year was “Miracle on Broadway” with proceeds benefiting ‘Share the Warmth’, Piedmont’s energy assistance program that helps local low-income families pay their energy bills.
