This Friday, November 29th, 2024, the 32nd annual Festival of Lights will take place in Ashland. The parade will begin at 5:00PM in front of the Ashland Public Library and will move west along East Main Street toward the Plaza. East Main Street between Gresham Street and Water Street will be closed from 3:00PM to 7:00PM. Lithia Way will be converted to accommodate two-way traffic needs within the downtown corridor during this event.

As safety of those who attend this event is our top priority each year, all vehicles left parked within the closed area of downtown will be towed beginning at 3:00PM. These areas will be clearly posted ahead of time.

The City of Ashland Police Department wishes all a safe and enjoyable holiday season.
