The Rise Lantern Festival was first established in 2014 and has since grown into a beloved tradition for both locals and tourists. The event features not only the lantern releases but also various activities such as live music, food vendors, and art installations. Attendees are encouraged to write their wishes or messages on the lanterns before releasing them, making each lantern a personal expression of hope or remembrance.
As dusk falls, the sight of thousands of lanterns ascending into the starry sky is nothing short of mesmerizing. The event typically attracts families, couples, and friends, fostering a sense of togetherness as everyone shares in the experience. With a commitment to environmental sustainability, all lanterns used are made from eco-friendly materials, ensuring that the beauty of the festival does not come at the cost of the environment.
