The City of Newport Beach kicks off its annual Christmas Boat Parade Dec. 14—now in its 114th year—continuing its tradition as the longest-running boat parade in the United States.

Starting from the Eastern tip of Lido Island at 6:30 p.m., over 100 vessels will caravan through the harbor, displaying brilliant arrangements of Christmas lights and holiday décor. The last night to watch the boat parade is Dec. 18.
