Lantern Festival

  • Fabyan Japanese Garden (map)

Join us for our Japanese Lantern Festival!

Decorate Japanese lanterns with memories of loved ones or hopes for the future and release them on the pond in the Fabyan Japanese Garden. It will be a tranquil and magical experience for all ages.

The Garden will be open to explore; try Japanese traditional games or sample tea in the Tea House.

At sunset, gather with the group to "light" your lanterns and release them onto the pond. Enjoy the gentle glow of lanterns on the pond and grab some cozy memories.

The Lantern Festival is great for all ages and will be a relatively small event.
