Milner Christmas Magic

December 18, 2025-21 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Make memories with your loved ones this holiday season by experiencing Milner Christmas Magic - an outdoor stroll through thousands of twinkling lights and festive window displays.

Our woodland garden comes alive with this spectacular light exhibit, and remember to enhance your visit by purchasing a pair of Holiday Specs, holographic glasses that miraculously transform lights into magical figures. You'll even be able to find something for everyone on your holiday shopping list in our Gingerbread Gift Shop, and you can warm up with a selection of hot food and refreshments for sale in front of Milner House.

Admission runs from 5:00pm–8:00pm with viewing until 8:30pm. Entry is by suggested donation of $8 per adult, $4 per child or $20 per household.

If Milner Christmas Magic isn't part of your annual holiday traditions yet, it's never too late to start a new one. Dress warm and grab your camera – you won’t want to miss it!

SPECIAL NOTES:
Only certified service dogs are permitted on site.
Please check our website or this Facebook page before your arrival, as inclement weather may cause the event to be cancelled for the night.
Learn more about our Magic Tips before you visit on our website: milnergardens.viu.ca/special-events

An off-site shuttle service will be running on Saturdays and Sundays of Milner Christmas Magic from the Qualicum Beach Civic Centre to the event and back, allowing for guests to park at the Civic Centre and be safely delivered to/from Milner Christmas Magic.

Thank you so much to our incredibly generous community sponsors: Windsor Plywood, Quality Foods, Coastal Community Credit Union, MacLean Pazicka Souchuck­ – Chartered Professional Accountants, and Lindsay & Associates. And thank you to our volunteers for donating their time and energy to hang each and every light, and greet you with a smile!
