Vancouverites embraced the winter solstice with the Labyrinth of Light as part of the 20th annual Winter Solstice Lantern Festival on Saturday.
Taking place at Granville Island's Performance Works and Yaletown's Roundhouse Community Centre, the festival celebrated light on the year's darkest night.
"The labyrinth has long been used for meditation, prayer and sites of ritual in various cultures around the world," the festival's website states.
"Created with over 700 pure beeswax candles, the winter solstice labyrinth invites you to warm yourself in a self-guided ceremony intended to help release old attachments and envision new possibilities as the darkest night of the year births a new season."
Check out some of the gorgeous photos from the event:
