Cue the lights because the region’s most stunning holiday tradition is back! Cary’s Koka Booth Amphitheatre will once again welcome the North Carolina Chinese Lantern Festival when it returns this winter for its 10th year.

Chinese artisans are already busy crafting more than 40 all-new displays, each one comprised of hundreds of parts and thousands of LED lights. These larger-than-life lanterns will captivate visitors at every turn with amazing craftsmanship and artistic beauty. Cultural arts performances will take place each night on the main stage at 7pm, 8pm and 9pm.

Twilight Ticket Experiences are available to purchase as well. Enjoy the lanterns during the “Golden Hour". This ticket type presents the perfect backdrop for memory making photos! Twilight gates open at 4:30-10pm on Mon.-Sun. only, excluding holidays.
