The founder of our event was first inspired by the traditional lantern festival in Chiang Mai when he was living in Thailand, and he wanted to bring this community-driven experience to the United States. Alongside local lantern launches, we support local businesses by hiring small food trucks and entertainers, and we feature musical talent because nothing brings people together like a show! For us, these events are about more than just releasing a lantern into the sky, watching for a few minutes, and going home— it's an opportunity to connect with people we'd otherwise never meet, establish intentions and let go of our worries as we decorate our sky lantern, and interact with the traditions of cultures other than our own. At Night Lights, we find that the intention and emotion behind each participant's lantern is an intimate decision. Each lantern's meaning is unique and equally important, which is why we include a marker so each participant can make their lantern their own. Thousands of Night Lighters write their stories on the spines of our sky lanterns and create memories that will last a lifetime, whether it be an engagement, a family milestone, or the remembrance of a loss. You’ll see people cry, pose, pop the question, and celebrate under the lantern-lit skies. You’ll hear joyous laughter and squeals of glee as lanterns are carried together in epic waves of love and light. This is a community event for everyone. Event dates in Spring '24 are May 24 and May 25. Learn more at https://www.nightlightsevent.com
