The Philharmonic Society of Orange County’s 64th annual Cruise of Lights runs December 19 to 23, 2026, in Huntington Harbour. Each night, boats leave at 5:30, 6:30 and 7:30 p.m.

The narrated tour lasts about 50 minutes and winds through the harbour’s waterways, passing boats, decks, docks and homes decorated with holiday lights.

Tickets

Tickets are sold through the Philharmonic Society’s website. The event page does not list prices. The cruise is a fundraiser for the society’s youth music education programs.

Parking and boarding

Free parking is in the rear lot of Huntington Harbour Mall, 16889 Algonquin Street, with a shuttle to the boats. The society asks guests to arrive at least 15 minutes before their cruise time.

Guests with a valid California disabled placard can park at Huntington Harbour Yacht Club, 3821 Warner Avenue.
