This year some special visitors from the Walt Disney World® Resort have a surprise for the Winter Festival of Lights Opening festivities.
And as we flip the switch to officially begin the 28th Winter Festival of Lights, hundreds of brilliant lighting displays and three million sparkling lights will illuminate the Niagara Parks Winter Wonderland and the City of Niagara Falls until January 3, 2011. Occurring along with the official lighting ceremony is a spectacular fireworks display. The entire performance begins again at approximately 7:00 pm (minus the official lighting ceremony).
