This also means that on-street parking for the tree lighting event on Friday at 5:30 p.m. will be free.

If you can’t find an on-street parking space, then the next cheapest will likely be the parking decks on 2nd Street and Market Street with $1 per hour for up to four hours and the first 30 minutes free until 9 a.m. The City of Wilmington provides a parking guide on their website.
