Magic of Lights Ottawa
About the Event
Magic of Lights Ottawa returns for its 11th spectacular season, bringing holiday cheer to Ottawa’s west end! This dazzling drive-through experience features over two million twinkling lights along a two-kilometre route.
Back this year, the Mark Motors Group Holiday Pit Stop invites visitors to park and explore a festive winter village. Stroll through an illuminated forest trail, capture photos at festive displays, write a letter to Santa at the MOVE 100 Letter Writing Station, and enjoy classic Canadian treats.
This year, the event is once again proud to support CHEO, helping make a difference in the lives of children, youth and families in our community.
Gather your family and friends, enjoy the magic of the holidays, and support a wonderful cause. One carload, one price!
