Tips & Advice
- Arrive early to explore the market before the Holiday Parade begins and secure a good viewing spot.
- Check the event schedule for the exact time of the Holiday Wreath Contest winner announcement to avoid missing the reveal.
- Consider visiting the market on foot or using public transport if available, as parking may be limited during peak parade times.
- Bring cash for vendors, as not all may accept card payments, though some may offer online payment options.
- Dress in layers as December weather in Oregon can be unpredictable; comfortable walking shoes are recommended for exploring the market and parade route.
