Step into a dazzling winter wonderland this holiday season at VanDusen Garden’s annual Festival of Lights with over a million twinkling lights.
The festival also includes a breathtaking display on Livingstone Lake every 20 minutes, where lights dance to classic, disco, and soul music sets.
Guests are invited to gather around fire pits and warm up with specialty holiday beverages in the Fireside Lounge. They are also encouraged to make a donation to Make-A-Wish Foundation, and make a wish while lighting a candle in the magical Make-A-Wish Candle grotto.
Kids can have fun making music with recycled instruments, or play the piano and sing along to holiday tunes in the garden.
Look out for frames, sets and other selfie spots throughout the show and make sure to share with #VanDusenFOL.
