Christmas is a magical time, and every night from 5:00pm – 9:00pm, the North Shore’s historic Capilano suspension bridge comes alive with thousands of twinkling lights from now until January 2, 2012. It’s called Canyon Lights, and the entire park has been lit-up to celebrate.

A popular family tradition in metro Vancouver, Canyon Lights is about bringing families together to celebrate the Christmas season. There is gingerbread cookie decorating, caroling, glass ornament blowing and even reindeer games!

The majority of the park is open for the evening event including the Tree Tops suspension bridges, the Cliff Walk and trails long the ponds.

To keep you warm there are gas heaters located throughout the park and plenty of concession stands to get hot chocolate.

Admission is $25 for adults and $5 for children 6-16. Proceeds from Canyon Lights will go to the BC Professional Firefighters. Burn Fund.

The Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is located at 3735 Capilano Road in North Vancouver.
