A Bonfire at Gasworks Park with the Christmas Ship Finale Night

Description

Seattle Parks and Recreation is hosting a beach bonfire at Gasworks Park, with the Christmas Ship finale night festivities. The Argosy Christmas Ships are a magical annual Seattle tradition. As part of the festivities, a parade of brightly-lighted boats cruise from Puget Sound to Lake Union and out to Lake Washington from November 23rd to the grand finale on December 23rd, 2024.  Stopping at pre-planned locations with bonfires, the lead Christmas ship hosts an onboard chorus singing Christmas carols for the community to enjoy the bonfire and watch from shore.

Bring a warm drink in a thermos and gather around Gasworks Park for the grand finale party of the Christmas Ship 2024.  Sing along to the choir on the Christmas Shiip while the night lights up with holiday cheer. Dress warm, bring umbrellas just in case, and join in!

These events are free, and all ages are welcome.
