Water Lantern Festival, voted #1 festival by USA Today, is filled with fun, happiness, hope, and great memories that you'll cherish for a lifetime. Water Lantern Festival is a family-friendly event with activities, food trucks, music and giveaways. Take a look at a video here.
Don’t miss this incredible experience where you will create a magical memory as the lanterns illuminate the water in a beautiful display. This festival brings people together from all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life, for a magical night of great music, tasty food, and the most awe-inspiring sight as thousands of floating lanterns light up the water.
As the sun begins to set on the evening sky, Water Lantern Festival begins to shine with the launch of the lanterns onto the water as we Light The Water together. Participants will watch their unique lantern drift out into the water as it joins other lanterns carrying hope, love, happiness, healing, peace, and connection.
This is a time when people can come together to share positive energy, spread love and kindness, and find comfort and strength. It’s a great opportunity to reflect on your life, share your dreams, discover happiness and healing, and connect with your friends and family. You can feel a real sense of peace and healing when the lanterns begin to float out into the water - it’s an inspiring sight!
