Yesterday Buttons got a chance to ride in the dispatch truck in the Regatta Parade. She did amazing. She rides really well in the car and loved to interact with the people that were sitting along the parade route. She really loved the Chief. If you are looking for an amazing pup this is your girl. Call 503-861-7387 to set up a meeting. Clatsop Animal Assistance

🎉 Another Astoria Regatta Grand Land Parade in the books! 🎉

Events like this don’t just happen—they take an incredible amount of time, teamwork, and dedication behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly and safely.

A HUGE thank you to all of our Regatta volunteers who give countless hours to make this celebration possible!

And thank you to our police officers, firefighters, dispatchers, and Public Works crews who work before, during, and after the parade to keep everyone safe, manage traffic, respond when needed, and make sure the streets and community are ready for this great event.

It truly takes a community-wide effort to pull off an event of this size!!!

Press Release I Astoria Regatta Grand Land Parade

The Astoria Police Department is reminding everyone that the Astoria Regatta Association Grand Land Parade begins at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 8th, 2026. Traffic will be disrupted through the downtown core beginning at about 8:00 a.m.

Exchange Street will be closed between 23rd and 16th Streets at 8:30 A.M. The Hospital, Urgent Care, and the Park Medical Building will be accessible from Marine Drive at 20th, 21st, and 23rd Streets. Exchange and Duane between 17th and 9th will have no on-street parking on Saturday until the parade ends. The no-parking areas will be signed, and any vehicles parked at those locations will be removed by a tow truck. The owner will be responsible for the tow fees.

At about 10:30 a.m., all northbound and southbound streets (the numbered streets) will be closed between Commercial Street and Franklin Avenue between 17th and 8th Streets.

These traffic disruptions will last until the parade has ended and the street has been swept.

Highway 30 will remain open, but you may experience delays due to pedestrian traffic and floats moving to the disband area. Traffic needing to get to or from the South slope of Astoria should use unaffected, alternate routes.
