The San Diego Bay Parade of Lights is a time-honored holiday tradition brought to San Diego by the boating community. Continuing its long-standing San Diego tradition, the annual San Diego Bay Parade of Lights promises to dazzle and entertain bayfront crowds during 2 evenings on Sundays, December 10 and December 17, 2023. Participants in this year’s highly anticipated holiday boat parade will decorate their boats to fit the Traditions of Christmas theme.

Maritime Museum of San Diego has been known for years as the best place on the waterfront to view the annual Parade of Lights on San Diego Bay from the Museum’s historic 1898 steam ferry boat Berkeley located along Star of India wharf. 

Parade of Lights Dinner tickets are a great value with dinner, boat parade viewing, and museum general admission (valid before the dinner only) included.
