Caravan of Lights

Deck the Halls… errr… CARS!!! DCDA is bringing back the ever popular “Caravan of Lights” Parade for the 6th year in a row on Saturday, December 13th, 2025 starting at 5:30pm from the Grade School parking lot! We’d love for you to participate by decorating your car, truck, tractor, 4-wheeler, trailer, bike, or float, and join us for one hour of bringing lighted joy to the community of Dayton!!

Prize ribbons for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place! 🎄⛄️🚗🚜

Online Rules and Application can be found here: https://forms.gle/c5YK74p2pMMNj1Q79

Paper Participant Rules and Application can be picked up at Alacrity Salon Spa.

Caravan will proceed throughout Dayton via a mapped route over one hour. Map of route will be emailed to participants and posted online by Wed, Dec 10th. *This is a shortened route than in previous years, and we will not be going down every street.
