Winterfest® is a 501(c)4 not-forprofit organization which functions through the generous support of our partners, especially our title sponsor - Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Without these great organizations and individuals, we could not put together an event of this magnitude. With over 1 million attendees watching the Parade via land, and water , it is considered “The World’s Most Watched Boat Parade.” A tradition for 46 years, Winterfest® captivates the lights, music and holiday cheer. The organization consists of a dynamic board of 50 individuals dedicated to this community event, more than 300 volunteers, over 70 private boaters, interns and a devoted full time staff of three. The Parade is our signature event but we have many more offerings for all ages. Visit our website for more details on all of our incredible events and learn how to purchase tickets or become a partner.

Happy Holidays! See you at the Parade. Ben Wesley Chairman of the Board Lisa Scott-Founds President & CEO
