Block Parties

Covington kicks off 2013 Block Parties

The City of Covington will kick off its Columbia Street Block Party 2013 Season on Friday, March 22, from 6:30 – 9:30 p.m., along Columbia and Boston streets in downtown Covington. The celebration will continue every last Friday of each month through October. NOTE: The March Block Party will take place one week earlier than usual due to Good Friday.

“The City of Covington looks forward to hosting its best Block Parties yet, as the beautification of Boston Street and the repaving of our downtown streets have greatly improved the backdrop for these events. There are also several new businesses on Columbia Street for attendees to enjoy, including Winos and Tacos and Columbia Street Rock N Blues Café, which both feature live music regularly,” says Sarah Chambless, City of Covington Cultural Arts and Events.

The City will continue to close Boston Street between Florida and N. New Hampshire streets in addition to the traditional six blocks of Columbia Street. The City of Covington welcomes classic cars to line the street for visitors to peruse and enjoy. For inquires about participating in the monthly car shows, classic car owners can call 985-892-1873 or email schambless@covla.com.  

The City of Covington would like to thank Champagne Beverage for their generous sponsorship of this event.
