Hundreds of larger-than-life lanterns will be on display, making for an incredible, colorful, family-friendly adventure you can walk through this holiday season. More than 200,000 visitors are expected to come from across the state to see the glowing pieces of art.

The lanterns are on hand to showcase the beauty and artistry of the Chinese culture—the art of Chinese lantern making dates back more than 2,000 years, with lantern-crafting skills being passed down from one generation to the next.
Today, they're popularly used to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Each lantern at this year's festival was handcrafted and assembled by more than 25 visiting Chinese artisans and performers to our area.
