The entire event will run from 3 pm till mid-night with a music festival and cultural performances kicking off until 7 pm. Lanterns will be released in batches from 7.30 pm till 9.30 pm before an after-party continues till mid-night!
There will also be local and international food, snacks and drinks options at the venue!
Releasing the Lanterns
Lanterns will be released in 5 batches as per the CAAS and SCDF guidelines, and there will not be free release of lanterns, instead lanterns will be tethered to the ground with a 60m string attached. This is to prevent the lanterns from floating away and becoming waste.
The lanterns will float for about 5 to 10 mins, and participants can bring down the lantern after the candle subsides. There will also be safety marshallers to assist and ensure that lanterns remain tethered or to deal with fire-related contingencies.
