St. Thomas Lighted Boat Parade
St. Thomas, Charlotte Amalie Harbor
The St. Thomas boating community gets into the Christmas spirit by decorating their boats and participating in a lighted boat parade in the Charlotte Amalie Harbor. This event is held in conjunction with Miracle on Main Street. Get a good spot along the waterfront and enjoy the beautifully decorated boats.
Miracle on Main Street
St. Thomas, Charlotte Amalie 5:00pm
Come join the great fun of Miracle on Main Street. Stores in downtown Charlotte Amalie stay open into the evening and offer great holiday sales and specials for this evening only. Live music, food & drink booths, arts & crafts on sale all day and evening in Emancipation Garden, local dance groups and other performers.
According to today's paper, the event has been moved to the 18th.

Yep! A few friends I spoke to today were confused as they'd just heard through the grapevine that the date had been moved after they'd planned on going tomorrow! As the island turns ... island time ...
Confirmed it was moved from 12/11 to 12/18 - official
Sadly we are here and it has been moved. This is the second time I have specifically planned my vacation to have this happen. ...On the upside we left the blizzard back home.
STX is tonight. Run over on the ferry ....

ssseeker - sorry you are missing Miracle on Main St., I remember you were checking on the date when planning your trip. There are two holiday events tomorrow if you are interested: the 5th Annual St. John Christmas Music Festival & Children's Parade on St. John and Rising Stars Youth Steel Orchestra Christmas Concert on St. Thomas. Check out the Events Calendar for more details.
