CHULA VISTA, Calif. (KGTV) — Chula Vista's annual Starlight Parade and Children's Faire set for this holiday season is being postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

While the event is months away, organizers have pulled the plug on this December's event. Instead, the parade will be postponed until Dec. 4, 2021.

"We are sorry to announce that the Chula Vista Starlight Parade will be postponed until December 2021. Due to the COVID-19 health crisis and after careful consideration of current local and state mandates, we have made this difficult decision," organizers wrote on Facebook. "The safety of our residents, participants, vendors, and employees is most important at this time. We are looking forward to making new memories with you next year!"

Organizers say the parade and children’s faire will return with free pictures with Santa and train rides, fun holiday games, story time, bounce houses, festive ornament making, and an “Elf Yourself” station.
