The weather has cleared to what looks like a perfect winters afternoon/evening for the 2020 Virtual Lismore Lantern Parade.


While there is major disappointment from the community at not being able to be part of the usual street filled Lantern Parade celebration of the winter solstice, there are still plenty of ways for you and your family to be involved.

Come on down to Lismore’s CBD, wander around the block and check out the beautiful Enchanted Windows – reimagined, and delight at the gorgeous LightnUp Lanterns installed in the gardens to lightnthehearts of our community.

 

The mythical Nixie le Fae will take you on a magical mystery live tour of the heart of Lismore, so hop on to our Lismore Lantern Parade Facebook page and keep her company!

 

Unfortunately, if it is really raining hard, the lanterns will not be able to go out but as we mentioned the weather is looking promising.

4. Watch our Lantern Video Montage showcasing lantern creations from friends near and far.


A montage video above has been created by gathering photos from the people who have purchased and decorated our lantern kits and turning them into a beautiful montage video along with some of our special lantern moments from years gone by.

 

The beautiful soundtrack is a composition by Alice Chance performed for our 25th anniversary special guests Moorambilla Voices.


So, there you have it, four ways to be involved this evening for the 2020 Virtual Lismore Lantern Parade.
