Close to 1.5 million lights strung along the paths and trees at Assiniboine Park Zoo make for an enchanting night visit for warmly dressed folks. The annual light display was postponed in November, and now will run six nights a week until March 28.<\/p>\n

Tickets are time- and date-specific, and the flow is one-way along a two-kilometre path through the zoo. Food concessions are available and patrons must wear masks on the site.<\/p>\n
