The 102nd Annual Newport Beach Holiday Boat Parade
The Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce is hosting the 102nd Annual Parade of Lights in Newport Harbor. The theme for this year’s parade is “Lights, Camera…Christmas in Newport Beach!”
Every year, there are million dollar yachts, kayaks, canoes, and Duffy boats decorate their yachts to parade it to the city of Newport Beach. It is an incredible site to see these boats so beautifully decorated. It is really fun to be on the water to see the parade!
This year, the Newport Beach Parade of lights begins on:
December 15, 2010 to December 19, 2010
The Parade promptly begins at 6:30 pm and finishes up at approximately 9:00 pm. The route for the Parade of Lights begins at Bay Island, and then finishes up in the same location.
