Ladysmith Festival of Lights

From the last Thursday in November – when there is an amazing Light Up parade and fireworks display – until the first Sunday in January, Ladysmith BC, comes alive with shimmering lights. The early focus was to decorate just the downtown core but this was soon changed to include Coronation Mall and then to expand to the blocks surrounding the downtown area. The past couple of years has seen a great physical change to Ladysmith’s downtown, which has created many new opportunities for the Festival of Lights volunteers to create and add new lights and decorations.
