Tofino Winterlights 2017
Brightening up the short & dusky days of December is the ‘Tofino Winter Lights’ exhibit from December 1st – 31st, nightly from 5:30pm – 9pm at the Tofino Botanical Gardens. Experience artistic luminescence as you meander the trails and grounds beneath shapes of lighted strings and shadows cast. Warm up with a hot beverage from their onsite eatery, Darwin's Cafe.

This is an annual event inspired by the dark days of December in Tofino. The beautiful gardens by day transform into a magical tour of twinkling lights by night. Take a stroll through the maze of trails leading alongside the Tofino Inlet then partake in one of their many exciting events happening throughout the month. Featuring yoga classes, poetry readings, live music and more, the gardens are alive in an engaging way.
