The Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade

Vessels ranging from LED-adorned paddleboards to corporate megayachts and privately owned seacrafts are decked out with lights, music, live entertainment, decorations and revelers as they travel east 12 miles through the Intracoastal Waterway and north to Lake Santa Barbara in Pompano Beach. This 48-year-old tradition celebrates 15 years at the Seminole Hard Rock—they don’t call it the “greatest show on H₂O” for nothing. Events get underway at 6:30pm, but eager attendees are encouraged to show up early for the best views. 512 NE Third Ave, Fort Lauderdale
