Light up the night at Calgary’s first Water Lantern Fest

Via The Cut

Happiness. Love. Peace. Healing. No, we’re not listing off words that suburban moms use in their Pier One design pieces. We’re listing off the benefits of the Calgary Water Lantern Fest! As the sun begins to set on the evening sky, join the city in launching lanterns onto the water.

It’s gonna be a lit time, literally. The beautiful glowing lanterns will be a totally ‘grammable sight. Plus, there’ll be tasty food trucks, music, and zero chance of pollution. (Every lantern gets cleaned up after, no questions asked!)

It’s all going down at Olympic Plaza. You may be thinking, “but there’s no water there!” And honestly, we thought the same thing. However, it seems like things might get flooded for the lantern party. We aren’t afraid to get a little wet, are we Calgary?

Grab your crew, grab a ticket, and we’ll see you folks there on May 25th!

Calgary Water Lantern Festival
