Annual Lighted Boat Parade in Downtown Stockton

A favorite Downtown Stockton tradition—the Holiday Lighted Boat Parade—returns!

Stockton Yacht Club and Roger Hahn will sponsor the 42nd Annual Lighted Boat Parade on Saturday, December 2, 2023. The parade is a gift to the community from Stockton Yacht Club, Roger Hahn, and its many registered boaters. The parade will once again by led by the spectacular Port of Stockton fireboat, Sunrise.

The parade will begin @ 5:00 p.m., up river at Windmill Cove, reaching the downtown Stockton Marina and Weber Point at around 6:30.p.m. and then will return to Light 39 in the Stockton Deep Water Channel where the parade will end.

Delta Reflections has the reputation of being a great evening for spectators of all ages, so bundle up and be a part of this wonderful family event. The lighted boat parade takes place, rain or shine!

The Delta Reflections Lighted Boat Parade is dedicated in honor of Lynn Hahn. Lynn was a member of the Marina West Yacht Club. She will always be remembered for her dedication to preservation of the San Joaquin Delta.

Best viewing point: the Stockton lighted boat parade may be viewed from anywhere on the downtown waterfront, with the best locations being on the north shore behind Banner Island Ballpark and the Stockton Marina, the south shore near the marina and waterfront warehouse and from Weber Point.
