A magical evening is upon us, Floridians, and you better get your cameras ready. This picture-perfect night of enchantment will only happen in Orlando once, and we’ll be the first to say you do not want to miss this. Gather the whole family, bring all your friends, because festivals like this don’t come around too often.
A one-of-a-kind experience is about to debut in Orlando, Florida this September and you do not want to miss it.
The festival will take place at the new Orlando Watersports Complex, which is a perfect spot to gather around the water and enjoy a night of music, fun, and festivities.
As a memorable and oftentimes emotional experience, the Water Lantern Festival is intended to inspire the human spirit by releasing personal moments and memories through the lanterns, into the water.
The festival begins at 5 p.m., with a bevy of food trucks, music, and fun happening for the next few hours. Then, around 8 p.m., visitors will be able to begin designing their own lantern with the official lantern launch happening between 8:30 p.m. and 9 p.m.
There is nothing quite like seeing thousands of lanterns floating through the water, representing a release for some that is unlike anything else they’ve experienced.
The Water Lantern Festival takes place on September 15th in Orlando, Florida. The address for the Orlando Watersports Complex is 8615 Florida Rock Rd, Orlando, FL 32824. Tickets for the Water Lantern Festival can be purchased by visiting the website or Facebook Page.
