Christmas Lights in Williams Park

Holiday Lights in Williams Park is a free drive-through-style Christmas event in Langley. You can explore it from your car in December.

The Christmas lights event in Williams Park is one of several winter holiday attractions in Langley. Others include the Glow Christmas and Merry & Bright at Martini Town (both of which are awesome and highly recommended)! On the other side of the Fraser River, there is also Timberline Country Christmas. In Surrey, meanwhile, there is the Noel Holiday Light Festival.

What to Expect

In December Williams Park turns into a Christmas wonderland with many twinkling lights adorned throughout. If there’s some snow on the ground, the allure is even more magical. The experience adds to the build-up to Christmas.

This free event is fun to attend at night and can be enjoyed from the warmth and comfort of your car. The displays dazzle people of all ages and make for colourful photo opportunities.

At the event you can expect to see lots of families in their cars driving around and admiring the holiday illuminations. It’s a bit like Lights at Lafarge in Coquitlam, or Bright Nights at Stanley Park, but from your vehicle and without the Stanley Park train. (Note: In 2025, Bright Nights happens in Surrey, as part of the Noel Holiday Lights Festival.)

Holiday Lights in Williams Park is a great event for several reasons. It’s beautiful and free. It’s accessible for people who find it hard to walk around (assuming you have access to a vehicle). And finally, it’s something you can do on a rainy day without getting wet (unless you drive around with your windows open so you can see better).
