Seafair is a big local festival including parades, hydroplane races, the Blue Angels, etc. The Torchlight parade through downtown is one of the annual fixtures.

ai yi yi! Or should I say, "Aaaargh"? It's going to be a challenge getting to the pier that morning, I think.

No it won't, the run and parade start at 6:30 PM. The streets will be clear until late in the afternoon, and there are plenty of ways around the runners or parade.

That's great news! Twice we got caught in the Fort Lauderdale marathon running right outside our hotel. Not a great way to start the cruise day.
