Celebrate the Holidays in a unique Northwest way – aboard a decorated yacht, following the parade of festive boats, with bright lights, holiday music, and a warm cup of cider in hand. Raise your glass and join this fun Seattle holiday tradition, one of the highlights of the season for the last 59 years! We will participate in the parade of decorated boats, listen to the talented choirs, and watch the shore side bonfires. Cozy up aboard one of our luxury yachts and indulge in a delightful holiday menu while you enjoy the festivities. Be sure to dress for the weather because you will want to be on deck for the show!
