Seattle Christmas Parade Ship Cruises

The brightly lit Parade Ships follow the Official Christmas Ship.

Many boats make up the parade ship fleet, including many privately owned boats from nearby marinas.

Our Parade Ships are fully enclosed with outside areas, restrooms, and a cash bar.

Onboard activities include a "Ho-Ho-Ho" contest, Santa's magical presence, sing-a-longs, and a kids' activity area.

All parade ships position themselves alongside the Christmas Ship to enjoy the outstanding choral performances.

Happy Holidays!
