Victoria Harbour Lights: A Winter Dream is visible to anyone walking along the waterfront, but is geared primarily to guests aboard newly refitted Victoria Harbour Ferry vessels
Victoria’s harbour will have a unique new attraction this winter, as the Ralmax Group launches an interactive display of light, sound and video animation along the industrial waterfront.
Ralmax Group founder Ian Maxwell, who is spearheading the project and paying the bills, said he and others have been thinking for years about ways of getting people onto the water for a new perspective on the city’s shoreline. Maxwell said the substantial cost to bring the project to life — he wouldn’t divulge the numbers — represents an investment in the community. It will bring people downtown and be a signal for others around the harbour and the city that there is room for creative and exciting work on the waterfront, he said.
Justin Love, founder of Limbic Media, said the industrial waterfront backdrop was both a challenge and an asset. “It’s a really neat space to light up,” he said. “It’s nice to take an area that’s kind of really heavy industry and kind of make it beautiful.” Love said the narrative will be told aboard the ferries and the story will be picked up on shore by the lighting installations, which will then come alive, so even if you’re not on one of the boats, you can enjoy the lighting display from vantage points around the downtown.
