West Vancouver’s signature holiday celebration, the Dundarave Festival of Lights, returns with its winning combination of two Vancouverite loves – the North Shore and Christmas.
What better way to celebrate the season than taking in the shimmering lights displays, humming along to the free live music, or warming your heart by the giant bonfire.

In addition to that, guests can attend several free weekend concerts from local musicians.
- Dundarave Christmas Fair – November 30 from noon to dusk
- School Concert at Grosvenor Ambleside – December 6 from 2:00pm – 3:00pm
- Nativity & Paddle Songs – December 7 from noon to dusk
Donations from the event raise funds for local homeless programs and initiatives, such as the Lookout Society’s North Shore Shelter. The 2022 Forest of Miracles raised $33,770, which was matched by the Lookout Society for a grand total of $67,540.
One of Vancouver’s most beautiful spots shines even brighter when the Festival of Lights takes centre stage. So, come be dazzled by the Forest of Miracles and join hands and hearts by the bonfire this Christmas.
