Uptown Maumee | 6 p.m.

This year marks the 20th annual Holiday Light Parade and Holiday Hustle 5K in uptown Maumee.

Runners and walkers dress in holiday garb to either run a 5K race or enjoy a 1.5-mile fun walk. Proceeds from the event benefit the Maumee Senior Center. After the race, dozens of area businesses and organizations take part in the holiday light parade, which is one of the area’s only lighted nighttime parade. Thousands will descend on uptown Maumee to attend what has become for many, a beautiful holiday tradition.

Holiday Light Parade: Lighted floats and walking groups will line up along the six-block stretch of West William Street. The parade will then step off from the Maumee Indoor Theater and proceed southbound down Conant Street toward the river before turning right onto West Wayne Street to disperse when hitting Ford Street.

Holiday Hustle 5K: Runners and walkers taking part in the 5K Holiday Hustle and Fun Walk, which precedes the parade, will start at the Maumee Indoor Theater and run down Conant Street to West Wayne Street before circling back to the theater.
