This year there will be a spectacular Christmas light show, synchronized to music. Musical selections include Trans Siberian Orchestra, Bruce Broughton Orchestra, Sinead O’Conner and others. You simply listen by tuning your radio to 107.7 FM.

The computer controlled show has over 12,000 lights, three “leaping arches”, a 20-foot tall “mega tree” with a 3D star and more.  The lights are almost exclusively low-power LEDs and the entire show runs off of one standard household outlet.  The show runs Dec. 1 until Jan. 8, from 5 p.m. until 10 p.m. each Sunday to Thursday and 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. On Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, it will be on from noon until 11 p.m.

 

20102 42 Ave. The Lights will be on at the Christmas-a-holic Cannons’ home from Dec. 1 to Jan 1, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. daily. Something new added every year. This year, a 12’ snowman has been included. Hot chocolate and hotdogs will be available by donation every Friday until Christmas, helped out by Buy Low Foods and Cedarbrook Bakery and Deli. Funds are being raised once again this year for Cops for Cancer. Local RCMP riders will be on hand each Friday night to meet people and answer questions or just to chat.
