Parliament Hill is lighting up this summer with an incredible light show.

Northern Lights is a free bilingual show that showcases the thrilling thematic journey through Canada’s history at the nation’s capital.

Using digital technology and the architectural splendour of the Parliament Buildings, the show illuminates the Canadian history of nation-building, partnership, discovery, valour, pride and vision at the heart of our country.
