One of the most warming experiences during the holidays is tradition. Since 1919, families from near and far have always looked forward to the annual Newport Beach Boat Parade as an annual festivity. This December, the event returns for its 116th year for five nights in a row!
Guests can experience the parade in many fun-filled ways, from a family-friendly event on the sand, by boat, or even shore. In fact, you can view the parade from almost any place along the shore for free. Since this is a beloved tradition, it is highly recommended to arrive as early as possible to grab yourself a good spot.
All city parking lots will be open throughout the parade to accommodate viewers. Check out the map for recommended viewing spots.
The boats aren’t the only ones lighting up the sea. The parade will also have an exhilarating firework show from the Newport Pier at 6:15 p.m. on opening night, December 18, 2024!
📍Location: 1600 W Balboa Blvd, Newport Beach, CA 92663
