The event begins at 6 pm where you can enjoy food trucks, music, and more until 8 pm where you'll get to design your lantern. At 9:30 pm the lantern launch starts and you can watch all the beautiful lit up lanterns float along the water until 10:30 pm when the event ends. It's a pretty magical sight to behold and reminds us of when we were kids and would play with sparklers at night! You'll be guaranteed to get some good shots of the lanterns reflecting in the water against the night sky too.
