Is there anything more magical than the twinkle of lights during the winter holidays? We don’t think so! And with Edmonton winters being what they are, there\u2019s no better way to enjoy that magic than from the comfort of your warm vehicle!<\/p>\n

The Canadian Tire Magic of Lights<\/a><\/strong> at RAD Torque Raceway invites visitors to drive through a sparkling route filled with vibrant holiday displays and multiple light tunnels, including a stunning 425-foot light tunnel (the longest in Alberta)! Watch for an animated Barbie, life-sized dinosaurs, a BIGFOOT Monster Truck, and even a back-flipping Santa! It takes the festive \u201celves\u201d over 3,750 hours to set up more than 2 MILLION lights for this impressive drive-through display! All this holiday magic is less than 10 minutes south of Edmonton at RAD Torque Raceway. Perfect for all ages, it\u2019s easy to see why this \u201cSlow Ride On a Fast Track\u201d has become an annual holiday tradition for so many families!<\/p>\n
