Happy Holidays LadyBugs,

This is one that was mentioned to me from 2 guys sitting next to me on my airplane ride to Puerto Villarta last year.....they said it was fabulous and I should go. Unfortunately just couldn't squeeze it in...but this year Susan mentioned it again to me and I thought --yes this is something I would like to see.

I chose Mid-Week becaus it was cheaper--- $23.77 (total for on-line ticket for seniors) Children same price....

--there were some ticket places selling the same tickets for $50- $70......so please use the link to get your ticket (s)

When you use the link in comments (it will take you right there) you have to make sure to zero out the adult tickets (2) and put (1) ticket for Senior to get the $23.77 price....

Here's the Scoop:
There’s a magical event taking place at Banner Island Ballpark in Downtown Stockton, California this year. The Stockton Lantern Festival is a celebration of culture, art, and storytelling that illuminates the city and creates an unforgettable experience for visitors of all ages.

Each display at the ballpark is hand-crafted by lantern artisans using the ancient technique of Chinese lantern merged with the technological evolution of LED lighting.

Walking through the Lantern Festival, you’ll follow in the footsteps of Koda, a fearless adventurer as he journeys through a magical forest in Caballococha, Peru. Each sculpture and light fixture is strategically placed within Banner Island Ballpark’s playfield to further the story of Koda’s quest.

Some of these art displays include butterflies, owls, and even a smoke-breathing dragon. In addition, live stage acts including a wide range of musical talent, dance, and acrobatics complement the visual experience of the Magic Forest.

“This was all about creating a safe, fun and family friendly event that would welcome the Stockton community and beyond” said Jason Perry, General Manager ASM Global. “From the moment one walks into the ballpark we want them to feel transformed to a magical place that is filled with bright lights, interactive lanterns and something awe inspiring at each turn.

These dishes include Peru Tacos made with seasoned ground chicken, tomatoes potatoes, green olives, jack cheese, and onion cilantro mix all on a flour tortilla. Top this dish off with delicious fruit spears covered in Tajin and Chamoy and you have yourself a recipe for an immersive
experience!!
