Cary, North Carolina, Is Hosting a Gorgeous Chinese Lantern Festival For the 8th Year

"Set on Symphony Lake in Cary, North Carolina, this Cary amphitheater is hosting the North Carolina Chinese Lantern Festival through Jan. 14, 2024. Now in its eighth season, the event showcases enormous, meticulously crafted silk-over-steel lanterns made by more than 25 Chinese artisans—including an LED-lit dragon that stands 21 feet tall, stretches roughly 200 feet, and weighs about 18,000 pounds, whose head required a 15-person crew to install. Materials were shipped from Zigong in Sichuan and assembled on-site while performers rehearse for stage shows that run four times nightly beginning at 5:30 p.m.; gates open at 6 p.m. and the event runs until 10 p.m., with special twilight admission starting at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesdays through Sundays. Tickets are available online with discounted single-night prices starting at $11 for children ages three to 12 and $16 for ages 13 and up, or a flexible $35 any-night ticket. The town partnered with Tianyu Arts & Culture, one of North America’s largest lantern-festival producers, and past editions have drawn visitors from every North Carolina county and from across the United States." - Rachel Chang Rachel Chang Rachel Chang is a travel and pop culture journalist who contributes to Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, Lonely Planet, and more.

Amazing experience at this nature based venue. Me and my wife were very impressed with everything from ease of parking to how beautiful the venue was. The show was amazing and even with lawn seats we were so close. This will be our venue of choice!

Our second and third show here we showed up much earlier so the trees weren’t in our view as pictured. Getting to be in the pines was magic (and smelled amazing.) Loved being able to bring our own chairs to the lawn! Small purses allowed. Curious turtles in the pond by the smoking section. Shuttles to the gate from the back of the parking lot were readily available! The last star isn’t there because of how incredibly long it took the line to move to get inside… definitely the kind of place you want to show up to with plenty of time.

Great venue! We visited for the Chinese Lantern Festival and really enjoyed the show. Plenty of parking available, very friendly staff checking in/scanning tickets and running security. After entering, we purchased some food and drinks- all actually reasonably priced for an event space. I got a canned bubbly wine for $10 and we also got some onion rings and apple pie dumplings. Nice to be able to fill up without spending an arm and a leg. The light displays and live performances were great too, very entertaining. I would definitely recommend the lantern festival and I'd come here for a concert too!

My husband and I attended the 2024 NC Chinese Lantern Festival here in early December. The event was beautiful, had a huge display of varying themed lights/creatures, provided a place to purchase hot cocoa and cool souvenirs, and even had extremely talented acts perform on a stage. We enjoyed the twilight experience because we were able to see everything before and after it got dark out. It was super cold, though. So, next year, I plan to take gloves, a scarf, a winter hat, and a thick, long winter coat. The event offered free parking, but you could pay to park near the entrance. Great Venue. It has bathrooms, a pond you can wall next to, and is quite large.

Koka Booth Ampitheatre is my absolute favorite concert venue in the Triangle. There is something so magical about sitting under the stars and soaring pines while listening to the extraordinary music of some of the most talented artists in the world! I highly recommend Koka Booth to any music lover!

We visited for the Chinese Lantern Festival for the first time and it was amazing! The venue is great with lots of parking. Bathrooms are well maintained and easy to find because there are signs pointing the way. There are staff directing parking which is very helpful for large events. We have been to concerts and Halloween movie events at the Koka Booth. Each time we have a great time. There are usually food trucks as well as concessions.

The experience was absolutely amazing! It was my first time attending a Chinese Lantern Festival, and it far exceeded my expectations. The lantern displays were incredibly detailed and beautifully crafted, showcasing a level of artistry that was truly stunning. On top of that, the festival did an excellent job of introducing traditional Chinese culture. The performances were fantastic, and the Sichuan face-changing act left a lasting impression. It was a perfect blend of art, culture, and entertainment!
