Humboldt Facts
Humboldt is the site of Biblesta, a parade through the center of town. Local churches, businesses, and organizations create floats for the parade based on Bible stories. Other festivities during Biblesta generally include a Christian-music concert and bean-feed. A perennial favorite is a float commemorating the story of Jonah, which includes a giant whale spraying water out of the blowhole and a man kicking his legs out of the mouth.

Humboldt only has one street light.
