Celebrate the winter solstice, the turning point and the new beginning with an incredible spectacle. Marvel at the beautiful lantern creations on parade.
Belgrave Lantern Parade promises another amazing celebration of creativity and community in the Hills.
Each year the Lantern Parade brings together the community of the Hills in a celebration of friendship, light, warmth and creativity on the shortest day of winter. The street is reclaimed for the people and thousands flock to take part in one of best and biggest community-made spectacles as hundreds of lanterns line the main street, accompanied by drummers, dancers and performers of all sorts. There’s also a lineup of fabulous performers and events before and after the Parade, and the Parade Village with fire pits, food stalls and community signing into the night.
Each year we see more big lanterns, from more groups in the community, coming together in the weeks and months leading up to the parade and working with our Hill’s own Lantern Artists to create awe inspiring large group lanterns of special significance.
