Events Description

 
Magic of Lights Ottawa returns for its 11th spectacular season, bringing holiday cheer and bright smiles to Ottawa’s west end! This dazzling drive-through experience features over two million twinkling lights along a two-kilometer route with more tunnels than ever before at the Wesley Clover Parks Campground, all in support of children, youth, and families at CHEO. One carload, one price.

Back for its 5th year, the Mark Motors Group Holiday “Pit Stop” invites guests to park and explore a festive winter village right inside the Magic of Lights route. Stroll through an illuminated forest trail, snap photos at Instagram-worthy displays, write a note to Santa at the Move 100 Letter Writing Station, and enjoy classic Canadian treats as you soak in the holiday magic.

    We had a great drive through, so many lights and the added music was perfect.

    The website says $30 for a car during the week and we were charged $40 at the gate. So a little disappointed with that. I kindly informed the gate staff.
    I would attach a screenshot and link of was able.

    Thanks for the fun experience tho.
    Merry Christmas

    We went with our kids, but didn’t get to see the show because of the ridiculously long wait time before getting to the light show. Once we got there, we were sent inside an elaborate queue of cars. At first, it looks like it won’t take a lot of time, because of the way the traffic is redirected.
    Additionally, at the entrance, the employees do not warn anyone about the amount of wait time that’s ahead of you. So you wait and wait, and at some point, you get to another employee; then you ask “how much longer”, but the answer is “I don’t know”. After 1 hour and 15 minutes, we got to a 3rd employee; same question and same answer (i.e. “I don’t know”). Luckily, there was a way out after 1 hour and 20 minutes. No way out before that. One of my kids almost pee’d himself; no toilet and no portapotty along the way…

    Not impressed with the organization, nor the customer service.
