The Natchitoches Christmas Angels are the official ambassadors to the Natchitoches Christmas Festival Junior Parade. We will judge and crown each group in order of age. In each division, a Queen, First and Second alternate will be chosen (trophies awarded). Queens will receive a crown and banner. Queens will also ride in the Natchitoches Christmas Festival Main Parade and also the Marthaville Good Ole Days Festival Parade, the Provencal Parade, and represent Natchitoches at other functions during their reign as Christmas Angels. Queens will be required to purchase an outfit at an approximate cost not to exceed $100. All contestants must attend a Natchitoches Parish school.

Pageant Rules
  1. Dress for grades 7th and 8th should be floor length
  2. Dress must be age appropriate.
  3. NO low cut front, indecent back exposure, no extremely tight fitting gowns, and no split skirts above the knee. We ask that the dresses be conservative and allow the child to shine and be seen first….not the dress.
  4. Minimal make-up should be worn. They should look like young ladies not grown women.
  5. Contestants who are not in compliance with the above rules will be judged accordingly.
  6. There will be an on-stage question for the 7th and 8th grade competition. Contestants will be given a list of possible questions at the Friday night rehearsal.
  7. Last year’s Angels are not eligible to compete, however, the 7th grade Angel is eligible to compete for the 8th grade title.
  8. Judges are highly qualified and their decisions are final.
  9. Pageant Directors or Northwestern State University will not be held responsible for any accidents, lost or stolen articles before, during, or after the pageant.
  10. Please keep in mind, the Angels Pageant is not a ‘beauty’ pageant and we want the girls to have a memorable experience and have fun.
