Get ready for one of the most magical evenings of the year! On **Saturday 22nd November**, the **Byfleet Boat Club** will be lighting up the river with their annual **illuminated boat procession** – a floating festival of colour, music, and community spirit.

Things officially kick off at **17:30** (though it’s a bit of a mystery whether that’s when the boats start gliding off or when they begin arriving in Byfleet).

**Optional** \- If people are feeling up to it\, it’s worth heading to the **starting point** first (where all the boats are coming from) – about a **20-minute walk** – where you’ll find the boat crews gathered around with hot drinks, swapping stories, and adding the final sparkles to their displays.

Back at the **Boat Club (depending on whether we walked or not)**, the big doors will be thrown open with **food stalls, hot drinks, and plenty of local goodies** to enjoy. (See the event picture, the boathouse is in the background)

It’s smaller than the Guildford parade (expect around **15–20 boats**), but don’t be fooled – these boats go *all out* with their decorations (there is always one with some very loud music playing as well!)

📍 **Address:**
Byfleet Boat Club
4 Old Parvis Road, Byfleet, West Byfleet, KT14 6LE

**\*\*Parking is limited, but plenty of street parking around - This is a popular community-driven event, so come early for easier parking\*\***
