“We will have the usual food vendors in the city hall plaza. We are having a lot of vendors on the courthouse lawn,” downtown event coordinator Paula Bowman said.
Music will be provided by the band 81/89 from 6 to 9 p.m. downtown, with dinner music by David Haney in the corner of the city hall plaza also from 6 to 9 p.m.
“We invite everyone to utilize the alleyway project for dinner and relaxing,” Bowman said. The alley is between city hall and Oak & Alley/Three Crowns Coffee.
The Family Carnival, put on annually by the Warsaw Parks and Recreation Department, is from 6 to 9 p.m. at Central Park. It will feature children’s entertainment, games, activities, face painting, a dunk tank and more.
Kids can sign up for Penguin Point’s Big Wheel Race.
Tickets for the carnival are 25 cents each, and punchcards are $5 each. A punchcard is equal up to 20 tickets and will be sold at the West Shelter.
“It’s a great night to come down and bring the kids to the park and dad to see the cars,” said Bowman. “It’s a great family night.”
