Torchlight Parades

Celebrate Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve with a glowing mountain tradition at Banff Sunshine Village.

Watch the Mountains Light Up

As darkness settles over Sunshine Village, our torch bearers illuminate the snowy slopes in a spectacular nighttime display. Gather with family and friends to watch the lights make their way down the mountain, bringing a little extra magic to Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.

Our Torch Light Parades are a memorable way for Sunshine Mountain Lodge guests to celebrate the holidays. After a day on the slopes, bundle up and enjoy this special Sunshine tradition right in the heart of the village.
