Bright Nights at Stanley Park

Ride the train through the magical forest, alight with thousands of sparkling lights, all while supporting a great cause.

Location: Vancouver, British Columbia

Every holiday season, Stanley Park is lit up with thousands of twinkling lights inviting visitors to enjoy the scenery, displays, and even a train ride through the forest. There is also live entertainment, and make sure you make a visit  to the North Pole workshop, where you can even take a photo with Santa and his fire fighter friends.

A holiday favourite for the Vancouver community and beyond, Bright Nights is also the largest fundraiser for the BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund, which provides life-saving, life-supporting, and life-enriching services to burn survivors and their families from across the province. The Park Board has donated more than $2.5 million to the Burn Fund since Bright Nights began in 1998.
