Join our Musical Theatre Camps in Langely!

About the Camp

Students are split into age groups and spend the week exploring our fun themes, building friendships, and dipping their toes into the wonderful world of musical theatre. No previous experience is necessary to join our camps!

Themes

Each themed camp is designed to appeal to all students and are led by our experienced and energetic staff. Campers build scenes and learn songs and dances that come together in a fabulous show which friends and family are invited to attend on the last day of camp! Many campers will attend multiple camp weeks with us each year (we even offer discounts for this!), a different ‘theme’ each week guarantees they wont repeat material on camp. Camps all follow the same structure; songs, dances and acting material is fresh each week with the new theme!

Like all Lights Up programs, our camps teach children to work in teams, build confidence, make new friends, of course, Sing, Dance, Act and perform for you, but most of all HAVE FUN!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I book a camp place?

Click on our camps page, from there you will see links to the different areas of the Lower Mainland we have camps operating, hit the closest page to your home. Select the camp you wish to register for. We only collect a $50 deposit to book your spot, with the remaining fee balance payable 30 days before the camp begins. We will email you enrolment confirmation, camp details, fee balance reminders etc.

What are the camp age ranges? Can kids do either half or full day camps?

Half day camps are for kids ages 4-6yrs. Full day camps are for 6-13yrs. If your child is 6yrs old they can attend either the half or full day camps.

As Half day camp material is designed for children 4-6yrs, students over 6 yrs of age may find the pace of our half day camp too slow, so please register for the full day options.

My child is new to theatre, or had little or no experience, can they still join a camp?

Yes! No previous experience is necessary to join any Lights Up camp or program. Our camps welcome both complete beginners and experienced students. This makes for a great dynamic within our camp groups.

What songs and dances will my child be learning on camp?

Camp material varies from week to week and we do not pre-set the curriculum but its based around the weeks theme. Our experienced instructors select material that will suit each individual class and camp. This flexibility allows us to tailor the experience to every child and every class!

Are there additional costs on top of fees for camps?

No! Any costume pieces or props are provided by Lights Up. We may ask kids to wear 'colours' for show day. There are no tickets for camp shows on Friday, everyone is welcome to attend free of charge. You will need to send a packed lunch/snack for breaktime.

Which camp theme should I pick?

Camps all follow the same structure, with a different theme each week. This allows children to attend several Lights Up camps in a season, but never repeat material and keeps things fresh for our instructors. We suggest you sign up for the weeks that work best for you, regardless of theme. All camps are equally fun to be part of!

Do kids need lunch at camps?

What do I wear to camp?

Light clothing that easy to move in. Track pants and a t shirt are perfect, shorts in the summer months as we do move about a lot and it gets hot! Dance specific footwear is not required for camps but if you have them already please wear them as they aid dance. If not please wear light indoor, non marking soled shoes. NO crocks or flipflops etc.. these can be dangerous for dancing. NO outdoor hiking shoes or gumboots please. If you wear to camp please bring something lighter and indoor to change into... Just like school!  

How is Lights Up different from other theatre schools?

We cater to the individual needs of each student. Whether children need a boost in self-confidence or want to become professional actors, we can help and support them on their journeys. We offer well-rounded programs that cover singing, dancing and acting in the same place at the same time. So, there’s no need to drive around to different locations for different classes.

Who teaches the classes?

Lights Up Summer Camps are a fantastic outlet!

My daughter has attended camps for several years at Lights Up! She always has a blast, makes new friends and spends the week singing and dancing at home! Its a great creative and learning outlet during the holidays. Far more than just daycare and play! Highly recommend.

Jordanna
Parent of (currently) an 11yr old

We really appreciate how organized and fun Lights Up camps are! Our 5yr old really enjoyed the 2 camps she attended. Not only do they dance and sing to their hearts content, there’s time for art and creativity too! We will be back this Spring and Summer!

Karen
5 yr old's Mom

Our son was pretty shy about joining this camp but came home beaming after his first day! The staff make everyone welcome and the varied activities keep them engaged all day! We really enjoyed his first show too! See you next year!

Steve
Dad of 7yr old

Our kids and family friends have attended several Lights Up camps together the past few seasons. They always have a lot of fun, enjoy working together and making new friends also on the camp. Its definitely a highlight of the summer for them!

Sarah
Mom of siblings 7 and 9yrs.

There’s a lot of fun to be had at these camps! Our kids were excited to go and came home each day full of songs and stories of the fun they were having. The show on Friday was great fun, their grandparents who were visiting from China came to watch it too. Hilarious! We were very impressed with the teachers and the camp as a whole.
