Lowell Labor Day Festival<\/a><\/h3>\n
The Lowell Labor Day Festival has been a staple of the Labor Day weekend celebrations for almost 75 years. The Labor Day weekend in Lowell is a state institution since it includes the state's longest-running Labor Day Parade and the Festival, which opens off the weekend with entertainment. The Festival is a three-day event hosted by The American Legion Post 101. The grounds are on State Rd. 2 on the west edge of town.<\/p>\n
This year's parade is traditionally hosted by the City of Lowell, along with other all-ages events in Liberty Park. The Labor Day Festival Committee previously held these activities.<\/p>\n
This year, the activities have changed a little bit.<\/p>\n
