The City of Burnaby has added four new areas to its roster of spots adorned with Christmas lights.

From Edmonds and Deer Lake to The Heights, nearly two dozen parks and public spaces were brightened up over the 2018 holidays, according to the city. 

Building on this program, four new areas of the city will be festooned with lights this holiday season: 

  • Willingdon Linear Park, in which some two dozen trees along the park are ornamented with lights
  • Edmonds Community Centre trellis and north wall
  • Hastings Street, where every other tree from Boundary to Gamma are wrapped with a canopy of white lights
  • Burnaby RCMP building on Deer Lake Avenue

”To help celebrate the season, the city encourages residents and visitors alike to add the #burnabylights hashtag to their favorite Burnaby holiday light displays,” said a news release. “Everyone is invited to snap their own photos of Burnaby’s holiday lights – whether it’s in a city space or your own front yard – and add the #burnabylights hashtag to help showcase the best of Burnaby this season.”
