CNE visitors are in for a treat this summer as the biggest indoor lantern festival in the world will be on display for the duration of this year’s 18-day-long fair.
From August 17 to September 3, the CNE will be brought to light in a brand new way as part of the new captivating installation, which will feature “larger-than-life exotic lanterns, stories-high in stature” creating a luminous kaleidoscope of colours.
There will be 17 illuminated, synthetic silk sculpture installations located throughout the Enercare Centre’s Hall D for visitors to enjoy every day of the fair.
According to a release from the CNE, the beautiful lanterns will be created by artisans from China, who will use local materials to craft and install each of the individual works of art.
