The event the New York Times described as “One of the top ten holiday happenings in the nation” was held for its 110th year in Newport Harbour on Wednesday, December 14th through the 18th, 2022.
The 114th Annual Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade took place over five spectacular nights from December 14 to 18, 2022, in Newport Beach, California, USA. For over a century, more than 150 beautifully decorated yachts and boats of various sizes have participated in the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade and lit up Newport Beach nightly. For five nights, we have enjoyed the parade in a variety of exciting ways, including a family-friendly event on the sand, by boat, or from the shore.
RING OF LIGHTS:
Homes along the Christmas Boat Parade route competed in a ‘Ring of Lights’ decorating contest, with each home displaying its own extravagantly themed decorations. The Ring of Lights has become as popular as the boat parade itself, with lights on every façade, roof-top animated scenes, and dancing Christmas trees. Visitors could view the homes by walking around Newport Beach waterfront neighbourhoods like Balboa Island and Balboa Village or by boat charter or boat rental.
FIREWORKS:
On opening night, the parade featured an exhilarating firework display from the Newport Pier, and on closing night, it featured an exhilarating firework display from the Balboa Pier.

West Main Street Named Great Main Street
West Main Street — once a string of mostly vacant and decaying buildings but now a vibrant district of museums, cultural attractions, restaurants and bars — has been named one of America’s Top 10 Great Streets by the American Planning Association.
“West Main’s successful revitalization didn’t happen on its own,” said APA executive director Paul Farmer. “It requires visionary planning, dedicated public leadership and public and private investment.”
“Main Street is a true treasure in Louisville,” Mayor Jerry Abramson said. “West Main defines who we are as a city. Those beautiful 19th Century buildings, with their unique cast-iron facades, are part of our history – and they are our future.”
West Main was Louisville’s first street, established by pioneers who settled the area in 1779 and two years later completed Fort Nelson. The gates of the Fort were located near what is now Seventh & Main.
Following the Civil War, Louisville experienced a building boom that led to the construction of the cast-iron facades, making Main Street second only to the SoHo area of New York City for the number of cast-iron facades.
With the growth of the railroads and the decline of river traffic, especially steamboats, activity shifted away from Main Street. New life came to Main in 1973 when a group of local architects formed by the Louisville Chamber of Commerce and headed by Jasper Ward and Bailey Ryan commissioned a study to identify ways that could revitalize Main.
In 1990, the Louisville Downtown Development Plan called for West Main Street to be the center of Louisville’s cultural arts district and for sidewalks to be widened and for art, including cast-iron tree guards made from bronze walking sticks, to be incorporated into the streetscape. That project helped kick-start a revitalization that continues today.
