Winter Whyte Light Up 2023

Old Strathcona’s favourite winter event is back for yet another awesome year! Join us on the last Saturday of November as Dr. Wilbert McIntyre Park lights up with more lights than ever. Performers will be entertaining the public all evening and many local partners are coming together for giveaways and to celebrate the beginning of the holiday season. There are plenty of activities for adults and children alike. From photo booths to story reading, and even a ticketed drag show to cap off the night! It’s fun for the whole family!
