27th Annual Colorado River Women’s Council Boom Box Parade Brings Your Favorite Holiday Cartoon Scene to Bullhead City
Bullhead City, AZ, December 5, 2025 — Colorado River Women’s Council – 27th Annual Boom Box Parade
The Colorado River Women’s Council proudly celebrates the success of the 27th Annual Boom Box Parade, which brought more than 100 entries to this year’s vibrant holiday tradition. Even with its larger size, the parade kept its trademark pacing and wrapped up in just about an hour and a half, delighting spectators along Hancock Road.
This year’s themes — “The Spirit of Giving” and “Your Favorite Holiday Cartoon Scene” — inspired some of the most creative float entries the community has seen. From nativity scenes, Americana tributes, The Grinch, The Simpsons, Mickey Mouse, South Park Christmas, and the “Nightmare Before Christmas,” parade-goers were treated to a colorful line-up of holiday imagination.
A major highlight came from hometown partners Tri-State A/C Hero and M&R Water Hero, celebrating 60 years of A Charlie Brown Christmas. Their spectacular float depicted the legendary dogfight between Snoopy and the Red Baron, the iconic Christmas play, and the beloved Peanuts Gang caroling in the snow. The characters were brought to life by members of the Mohave High School Choir, helping this timeless classic warm the hearts of thousands along the parade route.
With such incredible entries, the judges faced tough decisions, but after much deliberation, this year’s awards are:
2025 Parade Winners:
Best Overall: Tri-State A/C Hero and M & R Water Hero #77
Women’s Council Choice: Mohave Accelerated Learning Center #64

A very special thank you goes out to all of our volunteers, judges, and Boom Masters. Your dedication and hard work make this parade the beloved community tradition it has become.
We are also grateful to the thousands of community members who came out to watch and support this year’s event. One of our proudest moments this year was partnering with Canyon Home Care & Hospice to host seniors from local assisted living communities, giving many of them the opportunity to leave their facilities and enjoy the parade in person.
The Colorado River Women’s Council is honored to bring this tradition to our community year after year. We look forward to seeing everyone again in 2026!
