Lake Havasu Christmas BoatsThe Lake Havasu Boat Parade of Lights:

Each year Lake Havasu lights up the boats in a blaze of Christmas spirit and parades them up and down the boat channel and out onto the lake.

2009 Dates:

It's usually the second weekend in December.  In 2009 the dates are December 4th and 5th.

Seeing  the Boats:

The boat parade will proceed through the channel where initial judging will take place, then out onto the lake, making a large circle before reentering the channel. The parade will then exit the south end of the channel, following the Rotary Park shoreline to a point near the no-wake buoy line, where they will turn to the west and proceed toward the island, then north to the parade dismissal point, after which they may disperse and return to their dock or launch ramp locations.

Event Website:

Have a look at the London Bridge Yacht Club's site for additional information.

More Information on Lake Havasu:
Here's a basic Lake Havasu Visitors Guide as well as hotel and restaurant reviews. Lake Havasu will attract many boats and visitors for this special event, so make your reservations early.

Time You Can See the Boats:
