Below: the age bands and prices, how late it runs, what children eat and drink, and alternatives for younger kids.
The quick answer
Children are welcome with an adult. Booking direct, children 4 to 12 pay $75, teens 13 to 17 pay $92 and under-4s $26; Viator also lists child rates. The show runs from 7:30 PM to about 10 PM, dinner comes around 8:30 PM, and the music is very loud, so it suits kids who can stay up late. The venue is stroller and wheelchair accessible.
Can children go to the Harbour Lights dinner show?
Yes. Children are welcome, and the listing says they must be with an adult.
Reviewers call it fun for the whole family, and one guest who went with friends planned to come back with the kids.

Is it too late for young children?
For under-6s, often yes: the show starts at 7:30 PM, dinner comes about 8:30 PM and the night ends around 10 PM.
Older children usually love it. For little ones, feed them before you go and bring something to sleep on in the stroller.
Is the music too loud for kids?
It is very loud, according to reviewers, so bring ear defenders for babies and young children.
Seats further from the stage should be a little quieter, but you lose some of the view.
What will kids eat?
The same barbecue as adults: jerk chicken, steak, fish or shrimp kebabs with rice, potatoes and salads, then a brownie with ice cream.
Ask about vegetarian or plainer options when you book.
Is the venue accessible with a stroller?
Yes: the listing describes it as wheelchair and stroller accessible, and infant seats are available.
It is still a beach, so expect sand underfoot.
Family night sorted: dinner and the whole show in one booking.
