Goshen Light Parade | November First Fridays
Friday, November 6, 5 – 9 p.m.
The nights get longer in November, making it a perfect time for a good old-fashioned nighttime parade in Downtown Goshen! A spectacle of lighted parade floats and presentations wind their way down Main Street, illuminating the night and thrilling parade-goers with an entertaining procession of entries from local groups, businesses, clubs, schools, and organizations!
Entertainment
Comfort food specials are also on parade, with downtown dining establishments and food trucks offering an array of seasonal foods, soups, and drinks to keep the cold at bay. Storefront displays brighten up downtown shops, and member merchants spotlight holiday items to help folks entertain and relax during the year’s busiest and most festive season.
Our events operate with the love and help of many volunteers and sponsors. Join us!
