  I am a little late in reviewing this attraction but I did want to comment on Pumpkin Inferno. We went on a Saturday evening in October. We booked reservations to eat on site which ended up being an excellent move, since we were able to get into the site early, eat and view the exhibits before the large crowd. When we were leaving we saw a long, long line up which would have made viewing the various attractions difficult when all those people got into the viewing area. The food in the Harvest Barn, where we ate, was OK but it was typical cafeteria type food. Hamburgers, fries, etc. Not a great ambiance but fun for a mixed group of adults and children. We originally had reservations for Willard's but our group size out grew the space they had available for our desired reservation time so the Harvest Barn became our option. We all enjoyed the exhibits. At first we were amazed and then we realized that they were not actually carved pumpkins but plastic display. However given the length of the display, use of real pumpkins would be out of the question and it really did not take away from the amazing lights and fun display. We enjoyed our visit and it was a nice little drive from Ottawa for a fun family gathering. We are going back for the Christmas lights. We have been in previous years and enjoy the display.

  Over the years, it's been getting more expensive.$51.00 for two adults and two kids. That's crazy. Almost fell on the road because they were too cheap to throw salt or sand. The train ride was boring and cold even though it had covers on it. Not worth the trip for the cost.

  UCV is a great place to spend a day going back in time. Take the time for a boat ride or horse drawn carriage around the Village. Once summer is over dont forget to get spooky at Pumpkinferno or see the village lit up with christmas lights over the holiday. You won't regret a visit any time of year

  I went to the " Alight at night festival" tonight and I have to say it was quite a letdown. It was far from being a festival! There were alot of lights but really nothing going on. There was one person at the church playing a piano and singing Christmas carols. The rest of the place was dark, quiet and boring! Virtually no entertainment!! Not worth the $13 admission fee!

  had not been here in many many years.So enjoyed watching all the people , especially the children dressed in the attire of the times.All the different establishments have such knowledgeable persons speaking and showing us what they are doing.. Some favorites were the tin maker, the cheese maker and the furniture maker....I recommend going before school starts so you can see the children!!!this is so educational for families , so everyone can reflect on how far we have come...and how times were so different....just take them to see the doctors house and ask questions.we also purchase a fresh loaf of bread with some cheese to snack on continued trip~~~ yummy!

  What a fantastic evening. Upper Canada Village is always a great family outing, but their "Alight at Night" evenings during December is simply amazing. Over a million lights are strung through out the village. Horse drawn wagon rides, give you a close up view of the entire village. A ferris wheel gives a different perspective to the light show. Various restaurants offer a variety of meals to warm you up and are offered at good prices. You can book private carriage rides for two. A visit to the bakery for some fresh bread is a must. A lovely way to celebrate the holiday season. At Chrysler Hall a light show is set to music an excellent touch. And a visit with Santa is an option to complete your evening.

  This was my 6th visit to this event. It is a wonderful way to see Upper Canada Village in the winter. This year there was no snow to brighten up the Village, but the dark caused by lack of snow really made the lights really pop. We had reservations at Willards restaurant and ate a wonderful meal at a very reasonable price, sang Christmas Carols in the church, followed by a horse sleigh ride around the village. Obviously not an evening for everyone as noted in some of the earlier comments but really a pleasant way to spend an evening with friends. Family friendly event as well.
