Visitors are invited to check out the 116th annual Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade<\/a>, happening from December 18 to December 22. This iconic event along the California coast attracts viewers to nearly 50 locations along a 14-mile route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The parade’s theme, \u201cChristmas Across the Decades,\u201d promises to take guests on a nostalgic journey with boats, yachts, kayaks, and canoes adorned in vibrant lights as they sail through Newport Harbor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most anticipated attractions is the 34th annual Lighting of the Bay at Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort & Marina. Guests can enjoy nightly displays of breathtaking decorations, including 50 illuminated Christmas trees, making the bay shine just in time for Santa\u2019s arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those searching for more dazzling displays, the \u201cBest Christmas Lights in Newport Beach\u201d includes the Ring of Lights on Balboa Island and Nights of 1000 Lights at Sherman Library & Gardens. The Ring of Lights features a route around two dozen beautifully decorated waterfront homes from December 18 to December 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Members and non-members can stroll through Sherman Library & Gardens’ picturesque grounds, where they\u2019ll find a towering Christmas tree, a sparkling light tunnel, and the enchanting Moon Goddess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

New this year is a 3D interactive experience in the conservatory; a Scandinavian-style Christmas set up in the sun garden, and a dazzling Crystal Disco Christmas featuring a whimsical wishing tree. Tickets for this magical experience are $30 for members and $50 for non-members.<\/p>\n\n\n
