LIHUE — The annual Lights on Rice Parade is scheduled to start at 6:30 tonight.
The parade will begin at Vidinha Stadium, head down Hoolako and Rice streets, and end on Eiwa Street at the Historic County Building.
The Kauai Police Department will close all streets along the parade route, from roughly 5:30 p.m. until the conclusion of the parade.
To accommodate the parade and road closures, the bus stop on Eiwa Street will be temporarily relocated to Hardy Street, fronting the State Building, from 5 to 10 p.m. Bus routes will not operate on Rice Street during the parade.
No parking will be allowed along the parade route, including Eiwa and Umi streets, after 4:30 p.m. There will also be no parking allowed in the parking lots of the Historic County Building and the State Building from 4:30 p.m. to midnight, to allow parade floats to park in these lots.
The annual Kauai Museum Christmas Craft Fair will also take place on Friday. For the safety of pedestrians and vendors at the fair, there will be no access to the Lihue Civic Center parking lot through the Eiwa Street entrance behind the museum, from now until noon Saturday.
