- Marketing & Community Engagement: Festive branding (posters, social-media assets, sponsor logos) is being developed to ensure the event draws large crowds. Local schools will participate in theme-based competitions and holiday colouring-contests to build excitement.
- Sustainability Measures: In keeping with responsible event practices, the committee is exploring eco-friendly float materials, LED lighting, and a waste-reduction plan for the event day.
