Light the Night

Light the Night is the park’s annual Christmas light display, offering visitors a chance to drive through the wildlife park at night and experience millions of lights and festive installations. This event is unique in Alberta, featuring both drive-through and walk-through elements. Throughout the walkthrough area and on the illuminated verandah, guests will find numerous spots perfect for selfies or family Christmas photos. The park’s Christmas store remains open during the event, offering seasonal décor, gift ideas, and ornaments to add extra cheer to the holidays. The concession also operates, serving hot drinks and tasty snacks, including mini-donuts. The Grinch makes appearances from Wednesday through Sunday each week, meeting guests and taking photos with families. Light the Night provides a memorable holiday outing for visitors of all ages and is a tradition many look forward to each year.
