Lights Over America
Sky Lantern Festival
Create Moments That Matter
“Lights Over America” is not just a sky lantern festival; it’s a celebration with a cause. We are dedicated to creating mesmerizing experiences while giving back to the community.
A portion of our proceeds goes directly to supporting initiatives aimed at aiding the homeless population in America. By attending our festival, patrons directly contribute to this noble cause.
Our event offers a captivating blend of enchanting visuals, live entertainment, and culinary delights, promising an evening of wonder and joy for all attendees.
Embracing the spirit of unity and hope, we invite families and individuals to join us in a celebration of light and togetherness, knowing that their participation directly impacts positive change in the lives of those in need.
With a commitment to creating magical moments and fostering community support, “Lights Over America” aims to be the highlight of the year for all who attend, while also making a tangible difference in the lives of the less fortunate.
There’s nothing more freeing than to be able to clear your head and release all the negative energy that comes with everyday life , except experiencing one of the most magical moments with your family and friends as you spend the day unwinding and watchin thousands of Lanterns Fly through the sky.
Use our beautiful lanterns to release negativity from your life, to create positive energy to attract the future you want, or to send a heartfelt message to a loved one.
Spend the day roaming our event activity area, shopping through our arts village, grab some food, and drinks (INCLUDING alcoholic beverages), and set around the fire pit and listen to some great tunes. As nightfall sets in, we will collectively release our lanterns up to the stars.
