Ontario's dazzling Christmas Land with a market and train rides will sweep you away to Finland

It's a road trip from Toronto.

Lead Writer, Travel

Something magical is coming to Ontario. This farm is transforming into a dazzling "Christmas Land" with endless lights and holiday cheer, and you'll want to start planning your visit.

Niemi Family Farm, located in Mount Albert, is bringing back its Christmas Land event from November 15 to December 21, 2024. You'll be whisked away to snowy Finland as you explore the Scandinavian-themed holiday extravaganza.

The farm told Narcity that they are preparing for "the most beautiful Christmas Season ever" and there will be lots of new features to enjoy, as well as returning favourites.

One of the highlights of the event is the Christmas Train, which takes you around the farm while playing the Christmas Story.

You can also head to the workshop to meet Santa, cozy up by a bonfire, snap some cute photos at the festive installations, visit the farm animals and more.

You won't want to miss out on the Christmas market, where you can find all sorts of goods, from handmade gifts to candles and more.

Other highlights include a Christmas cafe, Candy Land and bakery brimming with authentic Finnish treats.

This year, you can enjoy the new Mrs. Claus Bakery where you can decorate a cookie, as well as the new Scandinavian Store.

There's no fee for the market area, and tickets for Christmas Land can be purchased online.

Get ready to experience a Scandinavian Christmas at this magical spot.
