Santa Barbara Harbor 36th annual parade of lights

On Sunday, December 11th, come enjoy one of Santa Barbara’s signature holiday events – the 36th Annual Parade of Lights. All event activities are FREE!

Let’s meet at the biergarten at 4 for a drink and then walk together to stearns wharf! If you just want to go to the parade of lights, still meet us at the biergarten at 5 so we can walk together. It will be too hard to find eachother with the crowd at stearns wharf.

At 5 p.m. a tree lighting ceremony, complete with holiday tunes sung by the Dos Pueblos Jazz Choir, will be held on Stearns Wharf next to the Sea Center. Then, at 5:30 p.m., around 30 illuminated watercraft, will light up the night as they make their way from Ledbetter Beach down the coast to the Cabrillo Arts Pavilion, then back along the coast to Stearns Wharf.

The parade will be capped off by a brief fireworks show.
