About this adventure

The Los Altos Festival of Lights Parade returns for its 50th year on the evening of November 29, 2026, stepping off at First and State Streets at 6 p.m. The organisers list the first floats reaching First and Main around 6:20–6:30 p.m., and the final floats finishing between 7:20 and 7:45 p.m. It is a downtown street parade watched from the sidewalks, so families should expect crowds and a cold evening out. The parade association publishes a spectators page, a volunteer sign-up and a donation fund for the event.
