Canyon Frights is a fun twist on the normal Capilano Suspension Bridge experience. Expect to see a few carved pumpkins, spooky displays and other Halloween decorations throughout the attraction.

Tips & Advice
Below are some tips to help you make the most out of your experience at Canyon Frights. They include details about ways to save on admission as well as other general information.
Admission Tips
TIP #1: If you are a BC resident, buy an annual pass. It costs the same as one-day admission and it means you can go back multiple times at other times of the year for no additional charge. To qualify, though, you have to provide proof that you live in British Columbia.
TIP #2: You’ll save a few dollars if you buy your tickets online in advance instead of on the day at the gate.
TIP #3: Go in the late afternoon if you can, especially if you’ve never been to Capilano Bridge before. That way you can walk around the park in the daylight and then a second time in the dark. The two experiences are very different.

Other Things to Know
TIP #1: Canyon Frights is a great family-friendly attraction. There are a fair number of spiders and skeletons on display, including a few giant ones. The place isn’t overly scary, though. You don’t have to worry about people in freaky costumes jumping out and saying “boo!”
TIP #2: If you’re not sure if Canyon Frights will be too scary for your especially timid child, have a look at the skeletons on the outside of the entrance. If your child can handle that, and a few bigger skeletons, they should be able to handle everything inside too.
TIP #3: Be sure to also check out Canyon Lights during the Christmas season. That event is also amazing! Also, don’t forget, BC residents can buy an annual pass for the same price as a regular ticket. If you do that, you’ll be able to go back at Christmas for free. You’ll also be able to go to Love Lights in February, and then again in the spring, summer and next fall as well!
