IMPORTANT

Harbour Road Info

Due to the anticipated crowds expected to observe the Parade from areas along Harbour Road, the Bermuda Police Service advises that Harbour Road is being converted to a single one-way lane heading eastward into Hamilton between 6pm and 9pm. This will allow for parking in the westbound lane. Those attending house parties that take advantage of the Harbour Road parking must not block private access driveways and MUST remove their cars by 9pm when the westbound lane reopens.

Get ready for

JetPack Invasion

As a special added treat, JetPack Invasion have returned to Bermuda for a stunning performance at the Boat Parade. These hydrofliers will take to the skies in an acrobatic visual display in sync to their illuminated suits and pulsating music. You may remember them from Battle on the Rock last year and they are back and ready to wow the crowd!

Check out their incredible acrobatics...

A huge debt of thanks to all of the

Christmas Boat Parade sponsors
