Goshen Light Parade | November First Fridays
Friday, November 3, 2023, 5 – 9 p.m.
The nights are getting longer, and we’re here for it! A spectacle of lighted floats and parade entries wind their way down Main Street, illuminating the night. Comfort food specials are also on parade this bright night — soups, warm drinks, and other hearty, cold-night foods will be featured at downtown eateries. Member merchants help you prepare for the holidays with items to help you entertain or relax during the year’s most festive season.
