Christmas at Canada Place 2012: Activities and Events
byThe 25th annual Christmas at Canada Place begins this weekend as one of Vancouver’s most iconic attractions celebrates the season. Once again as a proud media partner of this campaign, I am happy to share all the details for what’s in store from December 8th to December 30th.
The Christmas Trail
Visit Canada Place daily from 8:00am to 10:00pm for activities, entertainment, the classic Woodward’s Windows, an avenue of decorated Christmas trees, Santa’s Workshop, Sails of Light and more — all free! Starting December 8th, you can stop by the Christmas Workshop from 1:00pm to 6:00pm daily for festive crafts, face-painting, storytelling, hot chocolate, and a SantaGram life-sized photo wall.
Woodward’s Windows
Aside from being placed along the Christmas Trail at Canada Place, spot Woodward’s Windows at Bentall One, Three, Four and Five, Woodward’s Food Floor by Nesters Market, and the Port Metro Vancouver Discovery Centre.

A few days ago I was preparing a list of activities for my children because the Christmas period is approaching and I was so happy when I discovered a list of events that will take place this month here in Toronto with Disney on Ice as one of the attractions prepared for kids. My kids love Disney and they’ll definitely enjoy this kind of trip. What a wonderful present I found without having to wait long hours in the supermarket. 🙂
