SUMMERSIDE, P.E.I. — The 25th Lights for Life will take place this evening at the Prince County Hospital in Summerside.

Join the PCH Foundation for the largest lighting ceremony of its kind on P.E.I. 

The PCH staff choir will entertain the crowd with live carolling, and the Lights for Life dedication books will be distributed. During November, gifts were made to the Prince County Hospital Foundation in honour and in memory of loved ones. The gift dedications are collected in the book that is distributed at the celebration.  

Attendees can also enjoy hot chocolate, coffee, cider and cookies before the official agenda begins at 6:30 p.m.

Following a short ceremony to acknowledge sponsors and announce the grand total raised, the lighting will begin.

The display will illuminate the sky as the lights and displays move to music.

Lights for Life has raised over $3.7 million to support new medical equipment (not including 2019 dollars). 

Guests are asked to park at the Atlantic Superstore and Walmart and walk to the hospital. There will be a shuttle service available from the

Superstore parking lot on a “load & go” basis. This service will be available between 5:45 and 6:15 p.m. They will return guests after the ceremony. There is no public parking on site other than staff, patients, event volunteers and patient visitors.
