Escorted by TV icon Bob Barker and the youthful cast of “High School Musical,” Santa Claus is coming to town after all this year, Hollywood leaders said Friday.

Hollywood Christmas ParadeThis year’s parade will begin at 5 p.m. Nov. 25. It will follow the same route as in recent years — east on Hollywood Boulevard between La Brea and Highland avenues and then west along Sunset Boulevard between Highland and La Brea.

Thirty-five bands, floats and equestrian units have been booked so far by a private producer hired by Los Angeles officials, who last month authorized the expenditure of $175,000 for the event.

This year’s parade will be videotaped by cable TV staff from CityView Channel 35. The tape will be aired at noon, Dec. 16, by KTLA-TV Channel 5 and possibly later on WGN-TV in Chicago, Garcetti said. Both stations are owned by Tribune Co., as is The Times.

This sounds like a great parade!  I hope to see you all there!
