MONCTON, NB–Christmas officially arrived in the Hub City on Saturday.

Close to 100, 000 people turned out once again for the 2012 Majesta Greater Moncton Santa Claus parade, and it didn’t disappoint.

It wasn’t winter like weather, and there wasn’t a single snowflake in the air, but that didn’t damper anyone’s Christmas spirit.

It offered something for everyone with lights, music, and of course, the major attraction, Santa and Mrs. Claus.

Over 115 participants registered for this years parade, including floats, marching bands and other organizations.
