Canadian Pacific Holiday Train

The CP Holiday Train has been in operation for 21 years, and has proved to be of immense value to those charities that provide food via food banks to those that live in poverty.

2019 will see music performers such as Madeline Merlo, Kelly Prescott, Scott Helman and Alan Doyle. The concerts are free of charge, but as it's a charitable event you are urged to donate healthy food options for your local food bank.

The train will stop at many Canadian stations for you to enjoy some holiday magic. You can't board the train, as only performers, and those involved directly with the event.
