Boom Box Parade; A Bullhead tradition

BULLHEAD CITY – “Celebration in a Snow Globe” was the theme for Friday’s 26th Annual Boombox Parade hosted by Colorado River Women’s Council.

Hundreds of Bullhead City residents lined Hancock Road in Bullhead City last Friday evening starting at 6pm for the 26th Annual Boombox Parade, an oddly named celebration of the season started 26 years ago by the Council and carried on as Bullhead tradition ever since.

Several schools hosted floats for the parade including River Valley Dust Devils, Mohave High School and more as did a plethora of businesses all themed for the Christmas season.

Though chilly and windy out, the throngs made the annual event a sensation as kids of all ages and what appeared like a good portion of the city’s populace all were in attendance to ring in Christmas 2024.
