Parking can be a challenge with everyone circling the main lots, but we found a 'smart' spot across the street which saved us a lot of stress.

The christmas lights at Burnaby Village was soo beautiful! We loved every single thing. The carousel is amazing and is just $2 and free entry to the village. Parking is a hassle but totally worth it. There is a cute cafe inside too.

Nice place to visit at least once. Lighting is fun, especially for kids, and they enjoyed. The trees were decorated with lights, making it worth it. The museum artifacts remind us of our old days in the village. How we used to live in our childhood, and our grandparents lived life with all the old technology. Overall, It was worth visiting and recommending others to visit too.

Perfect place to go for a nice stroll with your family, friends, couple or even solo. It can get a bit crowded on the weekends but it’s worth it . We enjoyed so much the Christmas lights. There it a carrousel ride was one hour wait so we just skipped. Come warmly dress on winter months as there is not much indoor space
In winter (late Nov–early Jan), Festive Village lights up free admission and the carousel is open for rides.
