Festival of Lights Opens November 27 With a New 10 Metre Tree
Burlington's Festival of Lights opens on Friday, November 27 at Spencer Smith Park, and this year the switch also turns on a new 10 metre community Christmas tree.
Opening night is free and runs from 6 to 9 p.m. The Burlington Teen Tour Band and the Jr. Red Coats play, Santa is there for visits, and the lights go on at 7:20 p.m. That leaves a good hour beforehand for the music and the lineup to see Santa.
The displays stay up long after opening night. The festival runs through to January 3, so the park is worth a walk through on an ordinary evening in December too.
If you go
Friday, November 27, 6 to 9 p.m. at Spencer Smith Park. Free, with the lighting at 7:20 p.m. Season details are on the festival's own site.
Dress for standing around in the cold, and get there before 7:20!
