Tri Cities Wa Lighted Boat Parade on the Columbia River this weekend December 4th and 5th from 6:00 to 9:00 in the evening. Bring your warm clothes and (hopefully) stand next to a warm fire or friend and enjoy the parade. We have a home on the Columbia River and the Lighted Boat Parade has been a holiday highlight for us as a family.Â
Event Route Details
Christmas Lighted Boat Parade will travel up river on the Kennewick side along Columbia Park. At around 7:30 in the evening they will turn around at the far end of Howard Amon Park in Richland and travel back down river on the same course.
