Town of Ponoka media release – Get ready for another fantastic holiday season as Ponoka’s much-anticipated, self-guided Community Christmas Lights Tour returns in early December. The tour will showcase and celebrate festively decorated homes and yards throughout the community.

“The Christmas Lights Tour is a stunning display of the creativity and dedication residents put into their light displays each year. It provides a fantastic opportunity for community members to show off their beautifully decorated homes and offers a fun activity for all ages to enjoy,” said Ponoka Mayor Kevin Ferguson.
