A New Chapter For The Mother Goose Parade Coming in 2024
One of San Diego County’s most beloved community events hopes to begin a new chapter in 2024. For more than 75 years the Mother Goose Parade has thrilled generations of San Diego families with music, floats, performers, balloons and more down the streets of El Cajon.
The Mother Goose Parade Association is excited to let fans in on a little secret: This beloved event shall be re-imagined as a new classic in 2024. There will be no 2023 event as the team begins the process of crafting the next chapter in this fabled celebration.
Since the first parade took shape in 1947, the Mother Goose Parade has been all about wonder, joy and imagination to the families and children in our community. The volunteer association is committed to that legacy and plans to be announcing details soon regarding all the exciting changes coming in the next year.
Residents are encouraged to follow @TheMotherGooseParade on Facebook and Instagram for updates and news.

Established in 1947...
The Mother Goose Parade was started in 1947 by Thomas Wigton, Jr. and a group of El Cajon businessmen. This parade was their gift from the business community to the "Children of East County.".
It continued for over 70 years, and has grown into a staple of the East County San Diego Community.
