The Water Lantern Festival is a family-friendly event where people come together to celebrate hope, love, remembrance, and new beginnings. Gather with friends, family, and community for an unforgettable evening at the Stillwater Water Lantern Festival. As the sun sets, design your own lantern with messages of hope, remembrance, or celebration, then release it onto the calm waters of the lake. Watch as hundreds of softly glowing lanterns drift across the surface, creating a peaceful and meaningful experience. Enjoy live music, great food, and local vendors as you take in a night centered around connection, reflection, and shared moments.
Little ones are invited to experience the festival magic at no cost. This complimentary pass admits children ages 6 and under when accompanied by a ticketed adult.
