Harbor Walk of Destin, Christmas Parade 2020

 

The annual tradition of the Destin lighted boat parade is happening in 2020 and it’s not to be missed!  If you’re feeling blue this holiday season, then don’t miss out on this festive event. The event will take place on December 13, 2020, at about 6 pm.

Festivities will be held that afternoon all along the harbor, with the lighted boat parade rolling at 6 p.m. Judging will take place at Margaritaville, but the parade will be visible up and down the harbor from Grand Harbor Condominiums to HarborWalk Village.

The boat parade will be followed by a fireworks show over the harbor. Boats of all sizes and types can take part in the parade. The entry fee is $25 per boat. Last year, 26 boats participated in this festive Destin event! There will be 10 categories for boats to enter, from big boats to small ones, commercial boats to tour boats and even sailboats. There will be boats awarded prizes in each category, with an vote for the “best overall” this year. There also will be a “City of Destin Award” for the boat that best represents the historic harbor.
