Originally Posted By FerretAfros I would be surprised if the 60th didn't last at least through next spring. I would expect the big seasonal events like Halloweentime and Christmas to return (though possibly with the new fireworks instead) The stars and stripes on Main Street are typical there from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Given that it's the same period as the kickoff of the 60th, I expect they won't do that this year. The 50th had elaborate lamppost decorations, so they decorated the buildings foe the seasonal events but not the lamps (and the parade floats were too tall for the Christmas garlands across the street, which could potential be an issue with Paint the Night)
