The event will be held tonight.

From Fremont Police Department

 A Special Event permit has been issued to the Niles Merchants Association for the Niles Annual Tree Lighting and Holiday Parade this Friday, November 23, 2012.

The event will begin at 6 p.m. with the tree lighting followed by the holiday parade at 6:30 pm. The large downtown parking lot will be closed for the majority of the day and Niles Blvd and several side streets between J Street and Hillview Drive, will be closed between 4 - 9 pm. 

Please take extra precaution while driving in the area, as Organizers anticipate about 15,000 people, many of whom will be children in attendance. Detour signs and volunteers will be on site to help devert drivers around the road closures.
