Downtown Amherst will host The Great Amherst Street Party this Saturday - part of annual Esther Fest activities.
From 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. this Saturday, October 26, Victoria Street E. will be closed to traffic between Havelock and Lawrence Streets, and Church Street will be closed at King Street. These areas will be transformed into pedestrian zones for the event - featuring vendors, music, and loads of activities - which will also occupy Victoria Square.
Barricades will be in place and motorists are advised to plan an alternate route during this time.
