WHAT IS THE LANTERN FESTIVAL?

The Lantern Festival offers a unique gathering for individuals from diverse backgrounds and beliefs to unite in a heartwarming, affirming, and memorable occasion! Many attendees find solace in the lantern release, using it as a means to honor cherished memories. Some inscribe their lanterns with aspirations for the future, while others use it as a symbolic gesture of releasing the past. We delight in witnessing the myriad of meanings this event holds for each participant.

IS IT SAFE?

Absolutely! Safety is paramount in everything we do. While our custom lanterns are designed with utmost safety in mind, we go above and beyond by partnering with certified security professionals and medics. These experts offer invaluable insights into the unique characteristics of each region, allowing us to tailor fire action plans and provide on-site resources to address any situation effectively.

ARE THE LANTERNS ENVIRONMENT AND ANIMAL FRIENDLY? WHAT ARE THEY MADE OF?

Certainly! Our lanterns are not only incredibly safe but also environmentally friendly, being 100% biodegradable. Crafted from rice paper, string, and bamboo, they stand apart from generic sky lanterns available online.

Free of any metal wire, our lanterns prioritize safety. After the event, our diligent clean-up crew ensures all lanterns are collected within 24 hours and disposed of responsibly.


Equipped to handle any situation, they retrieve lanterns that may land in trees, and in rare cases, engage a tree service company for assistance.

WHAT IF THE EVENT IS POSTPONED?

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY: Given that The Lantern Festival is an outdoor event, we understand that inclement weather can sometimes occur.
Therefore, event dates and locations are subject to change. In the event of inclement weather leading to the cancellation of a Sunday event, the first available makeup date will typically be scheduled for the Sunday of the next weekend. If Sunday isn't feasible, the second backup date will be arranged within 90 days of the original event date. Please note that refunds are not provided when weather conditions necessitate rescheduling or relocating
an event. Instead, your tickets will remain valid for the first available makeup date that we organise. If a makeup date isn't scheduled within 90 days of the original event, refunds will be offered. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility regarding these circumstances.
