Ice skate to some holiday tunes at Light Up UCF Ice Rink in Orlando. There’s no shortage of family-filled entertainment at this event with Ferris wheel rides, a choreographed light show and free showings of festive movies.

Watch the Winterfest Boat Parade in Fort Lauderdale, where 300 boats are decked out in colourful lights as they cruise along the 12-mile parade with music.
