Delight in the Portland Christmas Ships Parade this season! Several events take place throughout December, and Santa might be at a few! Visit the event host’s calendar for details. Most events are at 7pm, but times can vary.
Over more than half a century, the Portland Christmas Ships Parade has grown into the longest continuously operating illuminated boat parade in the United States, with around 80 boats participating throughout the season lighting up the Columbia and Willamette Rivers for fifteen magical nights every December.
No tickets are required! The Parade is free to watch and can be viewed from many public areas and locations listed on their website.
