Hillsborough River Holiday Lighted Boat Parade

Paddlers lead the way upriver in the Annual Hillsborough River Holiday Boat Parade, Tampa’s original, free holiday event for everyone and every boat – kayaks, canoes, power boats too, from Lowry Park Boat Ramp to Sulphur Springs Park, where we greet the Springs Community Holiday Party. Watch from the 2 parks or anywhere on the river in between.

Sulphur Springs Park, 701 E. Bird St., site of Community Holiday Party, is where to watch parade's conclusion. Lots of free accessible parking off Nebraska Ave.
