Partial WaterFire® Boat Rides

Partial WaterFire® Boat Rides

Our partial WaterFire® boat rides include an evening cruise throughout the downtown Providence waterways, with the addition of a partial WaterFire® lighting! Partial lightings can include braziers in any section of the river.

What’s the difference between a full lighting and a partial lighting? Partial WaterFire® lightings typically encompass only one section of the river but may include more than one. Full WaterFire® lightings include all braziers throughout the Providence River from Memorial Park to the basin of WaterPlace Park.
