FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
National OnDemand announced today that it plans to offer a free online stream of the annual Burlington, N.C. Christmas Parade. The stream will be available starting at 10:00 a.m. EDT, November 19, 2022 on National OnDemand’s YouTube channel.
Jay Daugherty, Director of Marketing for National OnDemand said offering the live stream served a two-fold purpose. “National is proud to be involved in all the communities we serve across the nation,” said Daugherty. “Offering this service to those who are unable to attend the parade in person, who are nostalgic for their hometown, or simply want to enjoy this tradition from the comfort of their home not only brings us joy, but hopefully will bring joy to those watching from wherever they are.”
“The City of Burlington is very appreciative of National OnDemand’s live streaming of the 75th Annual Burlington Christmas Parade,” said Erin Nettles, Burlington Downtown Manager. “This is one of the many ways that National OnDemand shows support for our wonderful downtown as well as the entire Burlington community. We are proud to have them as a member of our downtown community.”

For construction fans of all ages, National has arranged for two of its construction vehicles to make a festive appearance, flanked by staff members from National’s own Burlington headquarters.
The company operates from the former First Horizon Bank building on the corner of Maple Avenue and Main Street, adjacent to the parade’s path through downtown. The livestream will offer a unique birds-eye-view of the local festivities from far above the street, from multiple perspectives.
