Multi-Sensory Holiday Drive-Throughs

The Canadian Tire Christmas Trail is Returning to Toronto

After overwhelming participation and excitement in 2020, the Canadian Tire Christmas Trail returns with a multi-sensory experience. The immersive Christmas experience will include more lights, live displays, decorations, and festive treats than its 2020 debut.

Visitors can access the trail through a 1.5-kilometer drive-along path featuring thousands of twinkling lights and interactive displays. The trail also includes live talent such as carolers and merry elves. The Christmas Trail is excited to offer guests an opportunity to capture their annual photo with Santa from the safety of their vehicles while enjoying the curated display of holiday decorations. Tickets go on sale on Monday, November 8th, and the event runs from November 13th to December 23rd in North York.
