Get to the parade early to find good parking. Tejon street will be closed and cars will be towed to make room for the parade so be sure to park in one of the Downtown parking areas or side streets. It gets cold at night (Brrrr....) so bring warm clothing, blankets a chair and something warm to drink. Downtown restaurants are open. Help support local businesses and eat downtown for dinner before the parade starts.
Happy Holidays,
