KINGSTON – The City of Kingston will offer free two-hour holiday parking from Friday, December 5 through January 1, 2026. Parking in municipal lots and meters will be free for up to two hours.
“By offering free two-hour parking across the city, we are encouraging everyone to shop local and support all of our small businesses here in Kingston,” said Mayor Steven Noble.
During this time, city parking staff will focus on meter repair and routine maintenance but will issue safety violations such as blocking fire hydrants, parking in handicap spots, double parking, and expired inspections. Vehicle owners must observe all traffic and parking rules and park in legal spots. Regular enforcement of parking meters will resume on Friday, January 2, 2026.
The 2026 parking permits for the city’s municipal lots are now available for sale and renewal at . Permits are electronically linked to license plate(s), there are no physical tags. Households will be allowed to assign up to two vehicles to each 2026 parking permit purchased. Only one vehicle will be able to use the permit at a time.
