Port Hope Candlelight Festival – Candlelight Walk

The Candlelight Festival includes an illuminated procession and carol-sing down Port Hope’s main street, lighting of the bandshell, live music, projection art, an outdoor market, festive food and moonlight shopping! The Candlelight Walk takes place on Friday, November 27. It will begin at Walton & Pine Streets (155 Walton St.) at 6:00pm. Bring your singing voice and participate in the group carol sing along the route. Participants are invited to bring their own light source to carry (a lantern, candle with protective container, battery-operated candle or flashlight). A limited number of flame and battery-operated candles will be available at the start of the walk, while supplies last. Special thanks to Elexicon Energy, the official sponsor of the 2026 Candlelight Walk candles. Participants are also invited to bring a donation of a non-perishable food item for the Fare Share Food Bank. The Carol List can be found on our digital Candlelight Song Sheet webpage. Our friends at SONG will help lead the caroling and encourage all participants sing along to some holiday favourites.
