Atlanta Chinese Lantern Festival

Events and Festivals in Philadelphia

"Every June, the Chinese Lantern Festival illuminates Franklin Square (between Chinatown and Old City) with dazzling colors and shapes. The scope and variety of these handcrafted lanterns are mesmerizing: a 200-foot dragon, pandas, sea creatures, and a walk through a great white shark tunnel. There are even hands-on exhibits, like bicycle-powered elephant lanterns. Other parts of the festival include Chinese acrobats, craft vendors, and folk artists. Afterward, grab a drink at one of the pop-up beer gardens. Tickets cost $18 to $20.When: June" - MATADOR_NETWORK
