Port of San Diego Holiday Bowl Parade set for Dec. 27

The Port of San Diego is proud to once again host America’s largest balloon parade when the Port of San Diego Holiday Bowl Parade presented by Kaiser Permanente marches along the San Diego Bay waterfront on Wednesday, Dec. 27 at 10 a.m.
“The Port of San Diego Holiday Bowl Parade has become a holiday staple and we can’t wait for everyone to enjoy the exciting lineup of massive balloons, bands, floats, and music this year,” said Chairman Rafael Castellanos, Chairman of the Board of Port Commissioners. “This event draws hundreds of thousands of locals and visitors to our bayfront, which means an incredible economic impact for our region. We are proud to be the title sponsor for such a special event.”

Chairman Castellanos and fellow Port Commissioner Danielle Moore will be among those greeting spectators along the parade route. The longtime tradition also includes the largest procession of enormous balloons in the United States – including the Port’s balloon – as well as creative floats and marching bands.
