Description
Rappahannock River Yacht Club to host “Halloween Spooktacular” lighted boat parade
The Rappahannock River Yacht Club (RRYC) is hosting the “Halloween Spooktacular” boat parade on Friday October 17th 2025. The parade will follow much the same format as the previous holiday boat parades. Boats and spectators are welcome!
Beginning shortly after sundown which is 6:25PM, the parade will take place on the waters of Carters Creek beginning near Custom Yacht Service (96 Seafood Lane, Irvington, VA). Boats will cruise from there past the RRYC docks (100 Rappahannock Rd, Irvington, VA) where judging will take place. From there they will proceed up the creek past the Tides Inn. Skippers will be safely guided along the route in the dark by RRYC club boats. Boats will be judged in a variety of categories with prizes to be awarded during the afterparty in the RRYC clubhouse.
This is a Northern Neck-wide community event. Not limited to RRYC members, the public is invited and welcome to participate in the parade and to come watch the parade from RRYC club docks. All parade participants are also welcome and encouraged to attend the Halloween Spooktacular afterparty full of fun, food and prizes for winning boats.
Skippers are encouraged to use their imagination and turn their boats, sail, power, electric Duffy, and yes even steam powered into their best interpretation of Halloween. And remember, there’s no such thing as too many lights.
RRYC will be open for parade viewing beginning at 6:30pm. Everyone’s welcome, especially children (wear your costumes kids) with adult supervision to come and enjoy hot cider and treats while watching the spectacular display of brightly illuminated Halloween themed boats pass by while cheering for crowd favorites.
Participation in the parade and the after party is free, compliments of Rappahannock River Yacht Club, as is the public’s welcome to club grounds and docks for viewing. However, registration for the parade and after party is necessary for planning purposes.
