Parade of Lights 2023

The December festivities continue with the Santa Barbara Parade of Lights, a tradition on the water where hundreds gather to watch the fleet of boats travel from Stearns Wharf to Leadbetter Beach and the Cabrillo Arts Pavilion and back again, culminating in a fireworks display over West Beach. 

Dozens of boat owners from the local harbor outfit their vessels in festive lights and decorations to participate in the parade and celebrate the holiday season.
