“We decided to move the festival to Main Street in 2019 and it was so successful for our businesses that we are keeping it there,” said Mayor Mark Walsifer in a statement. “One plus is no busy streets have to be closed. In our promotion of this event, we encouraged visitors to come by train and many did. It keeps getting better every year.”
