Bright in Burnaby

Join Mayor Hurley and presenting partner Concord Pacific at 6:00pm for a special tree lighting ceremony to celebrate Bright in Burnaby, the official kick-off event for Heritage Christmas. The City of Burnaby has once again committed to donating proceeds of the carousel ticket sales during the Bright in Burnaby event to the Burnaby Christmas Bureau.
