How to Do the Holidays in Ottawa

See the Lights

Our top pick for the holidays is Alight at Night at Upper Canada Village, a beautiful, peaceful evening spent singing carols, riding horse and buggies, and being dazzled by thousands of lights. But if something in town is more your speed, try the Vintage Christmas Village of Lights at Cumberland Village, or even a trip downtown to the Parliament Buildings to see the lovely Christmas Lights Across Canada.
