Given the threat of cold rain on Saturday, the fourth annual Manning Family Children’s Holiday Parade has been postponed.

It's now set to roll at 12:30 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 7.

A storm system is expected to bring heavy rains through Saturday , according to the National Weather Service.

The Carnival-style procession will include 30 Kern Studios floats, with seasonal themes such as a toy factory, a choo-choo train, holiday calliope and Jack Frost. Santa will, of course, be a featured rider.

The Children’s Holiday Parade is the only New Orleans procession that also includes large-scale, shaped, helium balloons that drift high above the street.
