The village is being lit with candles, lamps and lanterns. The nights feature horse-drawn wagon rides, campfire stories, old holiday treats, photo shoots and Christmas carols.

Including learning about a pioneer’s first Christmas in the wilderness at the Fife Cabin, stories are being told of the Michi Saagiig about how they survived and thrived in the winter months in the Aabnaabin Gallery.

Events and activities include holiday treat samples, reindeer games, meals, raffles and more.
