Asian Lantern Festival presented by Meijer

Asian Lantern Festival presented by Meijer returns! This year’s festival features live acrobatic performances every hour on the Fifth Third Bank Stage and a variety of culturally-inspired cuisine at the MetroHealth Asian Food Market. All new highlights include Instagrammable moments and large-scale displays, including a nearly 40-foot-tall giant lantern, walk-through tunnels and a 150-foot-long Enchanted Garden Experience presented by CrossCountry Mortgage. On select nights, guests will be able to drive through the festival from the comfort of their personal vehicles. This drive through experience is presented by proud partner Serpentini Chevrolet.
