During your next visit to downtown Carlsbad, you will notice a few new sights along the way. For many years, colorful banners with images of surfboards and iconic locations and children on the beach have hung on light poles throughout Carlsbad Village. During the holidays, they are replaced with holiday images of hot cocoa, wreaths, and snowmen on the beach.
Starting this year, the Carlsbad Village Association (CVA) is managing the banner program for the City of Carlsbad, and its first round of brand-new banners were installed just last night! There will be a total of 78 banners being hung in the Village.
