WELLAND – The City of Welland is once again lighting up the holiday season with the return of its Winter Lights Display Tour. Sponsored by Welland Hydro, this community tradition celebrates festive creativity and neighbourhood spirit.
Applications to participate are open from November 17 to 28, and all Welland residents and businesses are welcome to take part.
From December 4 to 18, residents and visitors are invited to enjoy a self-guided driving tour of homes and businesses throughout the city, decked out in holiday displays. The two-week event offers a fun and family-friendly way to take in the sights, vote for favourite displays, and share in the joy of the season.
“This is one of those simple joys that brings our community together year after year,” said Fraser Mowat, recreation and culture coordinator. “The Winter Lights Display Tour is about celebrating creativity, connection, and the spirit of the season. It’s something everyone can be part of, whether you decorate or simply take the tour.”
A digital map of participating locations will be available on Engage Welland once the tour begins. Visitors can use the map to plan their route and cast a vote for the People’s Choice Award.
