Description
The most enchanting of Niagara Falls attractions, the annual
Winter Festival of Lights is Canada’s largest FREE outdoor light festival.
Experience the spectacular displays with millions of lights and larger than
life displays across the tourism districts.
“Sparkling Winter Lights” Falls Illumination
To celebrate the beauty and majesty of the winter season and
the annual Niagara Falls Winter Festival of Lights, an illumination light show
“Sparkling Winter Lights” has been produced for Niagara Falls Tourism by the
Niagara Falls Illumination Board. The display features the subtle and sometimes
harsh movements inspired by winter in the north. From gentle snowfalls to the
aurora borealis gliding over snowy tundra, to blizzards and the frosted falls;
winter’s spectacle is exciting and magical.
The mighty American and Canadian Horseshoe Falls will come
to life every evening with this tribute to the natural beauty all around us.
The display is part of the regular nightly illumination of the Falls, with the
five-minute lighting display playing through on the hour, at 6:00 pm, 7:00 pm
and 8:00 pm each evening between November 16, 2024 and January 5, 2025.
