What: Dig out your all-time favourite Christmas sweater, gather your festive-loving friends and family and head on over to the dazzling Noel Festival in Surrey. You'll discover an indoor and outdoor complex shimmering with holiday activities and entertainment for all ages, including millions of lights artfully arranged for the perfect seasonal selfies. For 2025, Noel is also hosting Bright Nights, the beloved festive light display that graced Vancouver's Stanley Park for many years. Once again, Bright Nights is a vital fundraiser for the BC Professional Firefighters Burn Fund. Give yourself plenty of time to explore the Noel Festival site and you'll also find live music and dance performances, a curated artisan marketplace and the chance to meet a gaggle of roaming holiday characters––the Green & Grumpy One included. Your ticket also includes unlimited rides on a ferris wheel (November 28 to December 19) or bumper cars (December 20 to 28) as well as cost-free photos with Santa. Kids will love the face-painting, ballon-twisting, candy cane slide and illuminated playground area. And when it's time to take a break and warm up, there are also some delicious food and drink options, including tasty food trucks and two bars where winter-warming beverages await.
