Have you ever wanted to watch Green Lake come to life with thousands of paper lanterns? Well, you’re in luck because this fall we had Luminata and now we have the Water Lantern Festival kicking off this weekend.

The Water Lantern Festival takes place on Saturday, October 7th and invites Seattleites to come together to “create a peaceful, memorable experience.”

“Wristband for entry into the festival area with access to food trucks

It’s worth noting that the admission price also covers the cost of cleaning up and removing the lanterns from the lake following the event.

If you’d like to purchase tickets you can do so now. Keep in mind, prices will steadily increase until the day of – when tickets will be at the highest cost.
