Squamish at Dusk is back to light up the night between Nov. 28 and Dec. 14.
The community event is returning to Rose Park, "promising to be even more captivating, featuring more lights and installations spread throughout the park,” compared to its pilot year last season, according to a press release.
“We were so pleased with the community’s positive response to the pilot event last year,” said Melanie Lazelle, director of The Wilder, which puts on the event, in the release. “We think there is a real need for events and things to do in Squamish during our winter evenings and we’re excited to work with so many wonderful community partners to bring Dusk back again.”
This year, the light event will feature interactive lights, a forest of giant flowers, an ocean-themed zone that includes Sk滩wx滩wú7mesh Nation stories, and blacklights in a glade.
“This year, we’re thrilled to bring even more light installations, art, and storytelling to the event, and we hope it will become a holiday tradition in Squamish,” Lazelle continued. “There will be some sparkly lights, but it’s more than just festive lights, it’s going to be really creative and fun. We would love for it to be a place for families, friends, and visitors to come together and play, make memories, and hang out while surrounded by glowing lights. We think it’s going to be magical!”
Each night, visitors can also check out fireside areas, as well as a tent that has warm drinks, treats, and dinner options.
