The holiday season wouldn’t be complete without the Community First Jacksonville Light Boat Parade. Each year, more than 200,000 people line the banks of the St. Johns River to celebrate the holiday season. Seafarers and landlubbers of all ages are sure to be dazzled by the area’s largest lighted boat parade. The night is capped off by a dazzling fireworks display featuring the famous sparkling waterfalls on the bridges of the St. Johns River.
This year, the parade will be held on Friday, December 30th. The parade begins at 7pm and fireworks will blast off at 9pm. The best viewing spots are The Jacksonville Landing, River City Brewing Company and Friendship Fountain.
