Niagara Falls is beautiful during the day, but at night, the magic is heightened by a series of lights illuminating the massive waterfall. As you walk along The Parkway, you will experience the beauty of light, sound and perfection. The pounding water will mesmerize you, and the lights illuminating The Falls in shades of pink, green and blue will have you in awe. With twenty-one xenon lamps focused on the rushing water it truly is a sight to see. The lighting schedule changes, depending on the season and time of sunset, but details are readily available. An added perk during the summer is that a fireworks display is added to the spectacle each Friday night.
