Sails of Light at Canada Place
The night sky will be illuminated by the Sails of Light at Canada Place when the iconic white sails come alive with Christmas-inspired colours starting at dusk every evening.
Woodward’s Windows
Walk along the west promenade of Canada Place to enjoy this treasured part of Vancouver’s history. Originally displayed in the popular Woodward’s department store, the Woodward’s Windows feature classic holiday scenes with animatronic characters and elaborate decor.
Canada’s Great Bright North
Nestled away at the North Point of Canada Place is the Great Bright North light display. Stop and visit “Chrismoose,” the 15-foot moose illumination for a perfect Canadian holiday celebration.
Avenue of Trees
The Canadian Trail along the outdoor promenade at Canada Place will be transformed into a holiday wonderland. Guests can stroll the outdoor promenade enjoying beautifully decorated Christmas trees and lights, sponsored by community-minded organizations.
* Last year, the event was also supposed to feature a Bright Skies drone show, that was unfortunately cancelled last minute due to technical difficulties. This will not be returning this year.
