From the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle:
From Rochester: About 90 miles.
Attraction: The Winter Festival of Lights in Niagara Falls, Ontario, running through Jan. 4, features holiday light displays, live concerts, fireworks and special events. The outdoor displays are lighted from 5 p.m. to midnight, including an “Enchantment of Disney” display.
From the Niagara Falls Review:
The East High Wildcats are in the house.
And by the time they leave, Silver Mist Productions may have its biggest hit to date.
It was midway through last year’s run of “Beauty and the Beast” that producer Linus Hand learned the rights to Disney’s “High School Musical 2” just became available. He [...]

More than once I’ve made the comment to people about the types of attractions we have in Niagara Falls. What [...]

As I mentioned before, I spent a week or so down in Kissimmee FL (just outside of Orlando) a month ago (I can’t believe it has been that long!). I couldn’t help but compare Disney and the surrounding area with Niagara Falls. I’ll share those thoughts with you this week. This is NOT meant to [...]
From the Niagara Falls Review:
It didn’t feel a lot like Christmas, but the Winter Festival of Lights made the most of it on a rainy opening night Saturday.
Under a steady downpour, a soggy crowd at Queen Victoria Park sat through an hour of speeches, Christmas carols and magic acts before Disney favourites Goofy and Pluto [...]
