Mark your calendars for the 2024 Autumn Leaf Festival happening in Leavenworth on September 28-29, a vibrant event that transforms downtown into a festive hub. The festival will necessitate street closures, particularly on Highway 2, from 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM, requiring drivers to take alternative routes. Specific detours have been outlined for both westbound and eastbound traffic to minimize disruptions. In addition to highway closures, Front Street will be closed during the parade, with plans to reopen shortly afterward. Attendees are advised to check the festival's website for comprehensive information on events and traffic management strategies.

The city encourages everyone to download the parade route map for a clearer understanding of the detours.
