The Philadelphia Chinese Lantern Festival at Franklin Square is a celebration of light and culture that debuts dozens of larger-than-life, never-before-seen lantern displays by artists from China and the Philadelphia region. The festival also features a variety of live Chinese cultural stage performances, which in the past have included contortion, acrobatics, martial arts, folk dancing, and more. Festival-themed merch and beautifully crafted artworks (created on-site by Chinese artists) are all available for purchase.
