Winterfest, Inc

The Winterfest Celebration embraces the dual goals of providing a means for the community to come together and enjoy spectacular and unique events as well as attract positive national attention to the Greater Fort Lauderdale area as a tourist destination and as a great place to live and work. Winterfest is best known for it’s one of a kind Boat Parade celebrating 50th Anniversary on December 11, 2021. Spurred by the continued popularity of that event, a not-for-profit organization, WINTERFEST, Inc, was formed in 1981 to administer the Boat Parade and to build a festival around it. The rest, as they say, “is history.” The scope of the festival has expanded to include a full complement of events. The festivities include the Golf Tournament; the dazzling Winterfest Black Tie Ball, the Shoreline Decorating Extravaganza, an exciting Grand Marshal Reception, Winterfest Launch Party, Family Fun Days, and culminates with the fabulous Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade. The Winterfest organization is comprised of a huge contingency of volunteers, partners, and Board of Directors. Winterfest, Inc. is entirely dependent upon sponsorship from local and national corporate sponsors. The Parade is an exhibit of local talented artists that spend hundreds of hours from conception to inception transforming boats into canvases of color and lights depicting the parade’s theme.
