The Bawcomville Redneck Christmas Parade is a Christmas parade held annually in Bawcomville, Louisiana, a suburb of Monroe, in early December.[1]

The parade primarily features pickup trucks, tractors, horses, and all-terrain vehicles adorned with Christmas decorations. Parade participants often dress in stereotypical redneck attire or costumes, often with an added Christmas theme. Many floats throw candy, beads, and even household essentials to spectators.[2][3][4]

The first Redneck Christmas Parade was held in 2006 and the parade route is approximately 1.5 miles, beginning at Riser Elementary School and ending at Jonesboro Road.[5]
