On Saturday, November 19, the community is invited to help kick off Strathcona County’s holiday season with the Celebration of Lights winter wonderland festivities at Festival Place.
Festivities take place from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. and include an opportunity for a FREE picture with Santa. This year’s free festival activities include wagon rides, reindeer visits, writing letters to Santa, campfire cooking, holiday crafts and more.
At 5 p.m., the countdown begins, and the magic of the season will come alive with the lighting of the community Christmas lights.
Festival Way will be closed at Brentwood Blvd N from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30pm. Parking is available at the Community Centre parkade and Centre in the Park parkade.
Volunteers are still needed for crafts, wagon rides, cookie decorating and more. Contact volunteer@strathcona.ca or 780-467-2211 to volunteer.
Please share the holiday spirit by bringing a donation for the Strathcona Food Bank.
Come warm cold toes inside Festival Place after the Celebration of Lights to enjoy a show by Big Hank and the Kingpins Tribute to the Blues Songs of Christmas. The show starts at 7:30 p.m.
