The holidays in Vancouver wouldn’t be as bright without Lights of Hope, and this year it’s starting with a bang.
A free fireworks show is set to light up the sky over Vancouver next week to kick off the season. Lights of Hope is tied to St. Paul’s Hospital, and the tradition has become one of the city’s early signs that the holidays are coming.
What to know before you go
Exact times, viewing locations and any road or transit details weren’t confirmed in the information we had, so check the official Lights of Hope channels before heading out. Fireworks nights tend to draw crowds, so plan to arrive early and take transit if you can.
It’s free, it’s outdoors, and it’s a reason to bundle up with friends and family. Are you going? Tell us your favourite way to start the season.
