Santa Parade festivities
Stephen's On State · Media, PA
Media's annual Santa Parade brings the big man in red down State Street to officially open the holiday season, with a family-friendly block party kicking off the afternoon beforehand.
Expect a bustling, stroller-and-kid-heavy street scene: a 2:30pm block party with live music, a gingerbread bounce-and-slide, and balloons, building toward the 5:00pm parade itself. Crowds line State Street, so plan to arrive early, dress for a cold late-November evening, and expect a slow, cheerful walk through town. Stephen's on State sits right on the parade route, making it a convenient warm-up spot for an early dinner or a post-parade drink once the sidewalks clear.
Stephen's On StateStephen's on State is a casual-yet-upscale steakhouse and bar on Media's State Street, where live music fills an open-air setting alongside a full dinner menu and a lively bar scene. It's the kind of place where you can grab a drink, enjoy a great meal, and take in local musicians in a warm, energetic atmosphere.
