Events Description

 
The Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) Holiday Train program is returning to the rails in 2023 to raise money, food, and awareness for food banks and hunger issues across Canada and the United States.

Two trains will make the festive journey, travelling through the U.S. and Canada to bring holiday cheer to multiple communities along CPKC’s network. Each event is free, with Canadian Pacific Kansas City encouraging attendees to open their cupboards and wallets to help address hunger needs in their communities. Local food banks will be accepting donations at each stop to ensure those less fortunate have enough healthy food this holiday season.

Holiday Train is about 1,000 feet in length with 14 rail cars decorated with hundreds of thousands of technology-leading LED lights and a modified boxcar that has been turned into a traveling stage for performers.

Free, Donations to local food banks are appreciated.

    A large crowd gathered in Ayr, Ontario to view the magnificent train. The main disappointment was that the stage stopped over 100 feet away and all the people around me left. The music could not be heard. It would be nice if they had an LCD screen on each box car showing the act on stage that is filmed live. Then everyone along the train’s length could enjoy.
