Autumn Glow Lantern Festival

Visitors will step into the dazzling wonderland of light and color as hundreds of artisan-made lanterns, each made of hand-painted silk cloth draped over a frame filled with LED lights, bring creatures inspired by Chinese legends and myths to life. Each unique piece holds a story of its own that will be told to visitors to help contextualize their experience even more.

The festival will also showcase a high-energy acrobatic show featuring the award-winning Zigong Acrobatic Troupe. From gravity-defying stunts to the mesmerizing art of face-changing, this is entertainment guests won't forget. The circus group has traveled the world and will perform incredible showstopping acts including juggling, balancing, face-changing and more. Guests can also enjoy light swings, see-saws, tunnels, and food and drink options on-site.

The Festival is open Thursdays to Sundays, September 4, 2025 – November 2, 2025
Each night is open from 6:30 p.m. - 10 p.m., with the last entry at 9 p.m.
