Description
Palm Coast’s waterfront will light up for the **43rd Annual Holiday Boat Parade** on Saturday, December 5, 2026, beginning at **6:00 PM** along the Intracoastal Waterway. Decorated boats of all sizes will travel from the **North Cut Canal south to the Grand Haven gazebo**, continuing a holiday tradition that has been part of the Palm Coast community for more than four decades.
For spectators, the City recommends public viewing from **Waterfront Park** and the **St. Joe Walkway Trailhead beneath the Hammock Beach Bridge, across from European Village**. Waterfront Park has also gained approximately 100 additional parking spaces and improved waterfront access ahead of this year’s parade.
Boat captains may participate whether their vessel is large or small, decorated or undecorated. Optional award categories include Best of Parade, Most Creative, Most Spirited Crew and Best Theme. Registration is currently open through the City for boat captains wishing to join the parade.
**For Palm Coast and Flagler County residents:** The Holiday Boat Parade offers one of the area’s most distinctly Florida ways to celebrate Christmas—watching holiday lights move across the Intracoastal rather than down a street.
**Visiting Palm Coast for the holidays?** Waterfront Park provides one of the easiest public places to watch the illuminated boats, with trails, waterfront views and public amenities.
**Before or after the parade:** Explore Palm Coast and Flagler County restaurants on PalmCoastLocal.com and make an evening of the waterfront celebration.
*Please confirm final viewing locations, parking, weather-related changes and parade logistics with the City of Palm Coast before attending.*
