The Esquimalt Celebration of Lights will return on Sunday, Dec. 1.

When it returns to the township in December, the Esquimalt Celebration of Lights is sure to brighten the nights of Greater Victoria residents.

On Sunday, Dec. 1, the festival will feature live music, food, a visit from Santa, and a parade to help South Island residents kick off the holiday season.

The celebration will start at 3 p.m. with musical performances at the Archie Browning Sports Centre, and at 5 p.m. the parade will begin at Canteen Road. At 5:30 p.m. there will also be Christmas carols from Vancouver Island's very own Maureen Washington and Rockheights Middle School.

"It is a community event where people can come together to celebrate the holiday season with lights and festivities," noted the Celebration of Lights website.

Though the event is free, bringing a non-perishable food item for the Esquimalt-based Rainbow Kitchen is recommended.
