Philadelphia Chinese Lantern Festival

The Philadelphia Chinese Lantern Festival in Franklin Square returns to Philadelphia’s Historic District in 2019 with all-new, handcrafted lanterns that illuminate when the sun sets. It’s truly a sight to see.

From May 1 through June 30, 2019, the park glows with newly made lanterns handcrafted by artisans from China using traditional Chinese methods.

Lantern designs in previous years have included sea creatures, lions, pandas and mythological creatures.
