from Commercial Street, to Spring Street,
and finally to the Miners Foundry

“Nevada County was once home to thousands of Chinese during the Gold Rush, and this event honors their legacy. The community parade begins at 12:00 noon from the bottom of Commercial Street, the site of the old Chinese Quarter during the Gold Rush.  Revelers should line Commercial Street.  The parade starts at the Robinson Plaza on Union Street (by the Nevada City Chamber office and the large Pelton Wheel), going up Commercial Street, making a left turn down Broad Street, making a right turn down Bridge Street (Bonanza Market), and then onto Spring Street where the Lion and Dragon dancing will take place immediately following the parade.  Revelers may follow the Lions and Dragon from Commercial Street to Spring Street. After their performance, more entertainment will take place at the Miners Foundry, for an afternoon of fun for the whole family!  Free admission.  We thank the Miners Foundry, the Nevada City Chamber of Commerce, the City of Nevada City, and the Nevada City Arts Council for their collaboration.”
