Lantern Viewing Dragon + Light Show Nights

Ring in the Lunar New Year the Chinese way—with dazzling light, roaring dragons, and the magic of spring arriving in a classical Chinese garden.

Unlike any winter light festival in Portland, Lan Su’s Lantern Viewing Evenings immerse you in handcrafted Chinese lantern sculptures, partnering with Noble Robot for a spectacular projection-mapping light show—The Twelve Zodiac Animals, and a lively Dragon Dance procession by Portland Lee's Association that brings the garden to life.

Don't miss a truly one-of-a-kind celebration that ushers in the New Year with unforgettable color, culture, and joy!

🕖 5:30–7:00 PM & 7:30–9:00 PM
