Here’s more on The Lights Fest and why you’ll want to reserve your spot now:
The incredible night of lantern lighting known as The Lights Fest is a word-traveling event that's soon to be arriving near Minneapolis.
The evening begins when participants are given a lantern and a marker to write down an inspirational quote, wish for the year, or the name of a loved one.
When the moment is right, thousands of lanterns will be illuminated and sent into the night sky in a moment of pure magic and beauty. It's an awe-inspiring experience that's hard to describe.
What's better yet is that the event is completely eco-friendly. The lanterns are 100% biodegradable, and there's a dedicated clean-up crew that will pick up the lanterns and any trace of the event within 24 hours. The launch is also contingent upon explicit permission by local fire authorities.
