Halloween Nights of Lights 2026: A Mesmerising Fall Spectacle
September 25 – November 1, 2026
Open Select Dates: Thursdays to Sundays (Select Wednesdays & Thanksgiving Monday)
CF Sherway Gardens, 25 The West Mall, Toronto
In Support of Epilepsy Toronto
Halloween Nights of Lights & Pumpkinville returns for its seventh year in 2026, bringing a completely reimagined Halloween and autumn experience to CF Sherway Gardens. This year, guests can explore the attraction at their own pace with a new layout that allows visitors to move freely between the spectacular light show and Pumpkinville. The illuminated maze features more than 1.5 million LED and RGB lights, creating a colourful nighttime journey filled with new scenes, glowing installations and plenty of memorable photo opportunities.
The adventure continues inside Pumpkinville, a vibrant autumn fun fair featuring more than 15,000 pumpkins, all-new illuminated photo opportunities and installations, midway rides, carnival games and seasonal attractions. Admission to Pumpkinville is included with a Halloween Nights of Lights ticket, or Pumpkinville can be visited separately.
One of the biggest additions for 2026 is an all-new 5,000-square-foot dystopian haunted maze. During the day, younger visitors can explore the maze without costumed actors until 7 p.m. Once darkness falls, the experience becomes considerably scarier and is recommended for guests ages 13 and older.
Visitors can also meet Mini Milo, a towering 22-foot-tall jack-o’-lantern and one of Pumpkinville’s newest larger-than-life characters. Add pumpkin-themed treats, food trucks and spooky specialty cocktails at the full-service bar, and the experience offers plenty to explore beyond the illuminated trail.
Whether you’re planning a family autumn outing, a Halloween date night or simply looking for an impressive seasonal photo opportunity, Halloween Nights of Lights & Pumpkinville combines lights, pumpkins, rides, games and Halloween scares into one colourful fall experience.
