The 30th Annual Winter Solstice Lantern Festival is produced by the Secret Lantern Society.

The labyrinth has long been used for meditation, prayer and sites of ritual in various cultures around the world. Created with over 600 pure beeswax candles, the winter solstice labyrinth invites you to warm yourself in a self-guided ceremony intended to help release old attachments and envision new possibilities as the darkest night of the year births a new season.

SECRET LANTERN WALK 6:00 - 7:30 PM
Meet at the Strathcona Community Centre where we will welcome you at 6:00 PM with music and light! Our Secret Lantern Walk leaves at 6:30 PM, and we’ll follow a secret path to the outdoor Community Labyrinth to sing songs, admire each others’ lanterns, and drink hot apple cider (so please bring your own cup if possible)!
