Timeline
15:53
Grab a pint at Fort Garry Brewing. It is Manitoba’s oldest microbrewery and a great place to warm up before the cold evening. Note that on Sundays this brewery is closed, so check the day of your visit.
16:31
Walk to Muys Park. It is an eight-minute stroll from the anchor and sits just east of Reindeer Run. This is a quiet spot to wait for the light to change.
16:56
Reindeer Run - Christmas Lights
The sun sets toward the WSW around 16:56 on 15 January. This is the moment the neighborhood Christmas light display truly comes alive against the darkening sky.
17:26
End the evening with a meal or another drink at Trans Canada Brewing Co. It is a short walk from the lights and open until 22:00 on weekdays or 19:00 on Sundays.
