The holiday spirit is in full force this weekend around the GTA for those feeling festive, while practicing social distancing.
We are about two weeks away from December — but that’s not stopping some businesses from celebrating the holidays early.
If you are feeling the need for impressive light displays, you have a couple of options.
There’s a large drive-thru Christmas lights trail in Markham called ‘Journey into Enchantment’ at the Angus Glen Golf Club.
It’s located at 10080 Kennedy Road, running Monday to Thursday 5:30pm – 10:30pm, Friday to Saturday 5:30pm – 11:30pm, and Sunday 5:30pm – 10:30pm.
