Description
Bright Nights is the long-running Christmas light display built by volunteer firefighters to raise money for the BC Professional Fire Fighters' Burn Fund. After more than 25 years at Stanley Park, where it was paired with the miniature train, it moved in 2025 to the Cloverdale Fairgrounds in Surrey, its original home city, and it now runs as part of the Noel Surrey holiday festival. The display circles the pond at the Bill Reid Millennium Amphitheatre, and part of Noel's proceeds still supports burn survivors. The Stanley Park train is not part of it. A Noel Surrey ticket covers Bright Nights along with the festival's other lights, attractions and entertainment, and parking is included. Kids six and under get in free. Buy online in advance and avoid the closed dates; weeknights are cheaper and less crowded than weekends.
