The Decorative Lighting Program provides lit and unlit seasonal decorations on street light poles in many of Saskatoon’s major commercial areas over the winter season. The decorations provide a welcoming ambience, supporting the Winter City Strategy by providing more lighting to make the darker winter season more inviting and beautiful. While some are removed in January, the remainder of the decorations are turned off and removed after the spring equinox.
