 Carol Ships
'Parade of Lights' Society began close to 50 years ago with one boat
decorated with Christmas lights in Coal Harbour at the
Westin
Bayshore Hotel Vancouver downtown.
On peak evenings, this
holiday tradition has grown to more than 80 decorated boats, with in
excess of 150,000 lights, and carries over 45,000 people during the 23
night festival. Along with many community-based shore side celebrations,
more than 200,000 people each year enjoy the parade.
