Stevie Wonder has been announced to headline the 2014 Hollywood Christmas Parade.

Filling the prestigious role of Grand Marshal, the iconic singer/songwriter will be headlining the 83rd edition of the annual event, which is televised across the United States on 30 November.

Wonder is the latest in a long run of celebrities to fill the role, with the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bob Hope, William Shatner and countless others appointed as Grand Marshal in the past.

Jim Romanovich, president of ATI who host the event has described Wonder as "a true American icon who is arguably the most influential singer-songwriter of the last 50 years."

Watch Stevie Wonder perform 'That's What Christmas Means To Me' below:

The rest of the lineup has yet to be announced, however every year the parade famously features a host of artists and celebrities.
