What better way to kick off the holiday season than to join in the fun and magic of the annual Jacksonville Light Parade? The St. Johns River is transformed into a sparkling cavalcade of holiday spirit as the First Coast’s finest boats and captains parade down the river. This enchanted night is topped off by an unbelievable fireworks display over the river, featuring our signature bridge “waterfalls.” The Jacksonville Light Parade can be viewed from both the North and South banks of the St. Johns River.
