The festivities are put together by Saigon Night Market, a group beloved for its sprawling food festivals hosted throughout St. Pete, Clearwater, and Tampa.
A festival highlight is the Flying Lantern Ceremony, which will take place each night at 8 p.m. Hundreds of lanterns will light up the night sky, each carrying festivalgoers’ hopes and wishes. Whether lighting a lantern yourself or simply enjoying the mesmerizing display, the ceremony promises a
“moment of magic” for all who attend.
