What to expect at the Newport Beach Holiday Light Cruises this 2023?

This tradition has been practiced for over a century. At first, just about a dozen decorated boats floated in the water – but things have changed. The Newport Beach Holiday Lights Cruises and Boat Christmas Parade in 2023 is expected to feature hundreds of vessels, each with its extravagant display. Many people now combine additional effects and themes to create elaborate displays in addition to traditional holiday lights. You might see anything from million-dollar boats to canoes and kayaks at the Newport Beach Holiday Lights Cruises and Boat Christmas Parade. People enjoy participation; on that, we can all agree.

Tips for your Holiday Trip

  • Wrap up warmly against the brisk air.

    Bundle up to stay cozy in the brisk air. When it comes to your attire, opt for a jacket ranging from lightweight to medium weight to ensure warmth and comfort throughout the entire parade. This will shield you from the chilly air. In case a recent cold front has passed through or rain is in the forecast, it's advisable to dress warmly, especially if you plan to watch the parade from a ship. If the probability of rain exceeds 50 percent, make sure to have an umbrella and appropriate footwear with you. Additionally, it's a smart move to carry an umbrella and gloves in case of rain.

  • Arrive early.

    Arrive with time to spare. Arriving early is the best strategy to reduce the risk of missing out. Boarding schedules can change without prior notice, and parking can be a real challenge during annual seasonal parades.

    If you're heading to the parade by ship, aim to arrive at least an hour before the scheduled departure time. For weekend departures, allow yourself an extra half-hour. On Friday and Saturday nights, when the parade is at its busiest, leaving town early can be a bit challenging due to fierce competition for parking spaces. People attending the parade, taking a cruise, or enjoying the festivities from restaurant patios will all be vying for parking spots. The choice is yours!

  • Create memories; bring your camera!

    Always have your camera ready, and make sure to prioritize battery health. Document the celebration and the beautifully decorated ships. Be prepared for unexpected moments during the parade, so keep your camera within reach.

  • Bring some cash.

    While physical bills and coins might be less common in today's culture, they are essential for the parade. You'll need cash for parking fees, beverages, snacks, meters, carolers, tips, and sweets. If you forget to bring cash, you can conveniently exchange currency or withdraw money at your cruise's departure dock.
