Wildwood Park for the Arts is gearing up for its annual Lanterns Festival April 10-13, the popular springtime festival celebrating cultures the world over, and this year’s fest is bigger than ever.
Now held over four magical evenings, guests are transported to faraway places and times as they stroll through the illuminated pathways of Wildwood’s gardens. Each year, Lanterns spotlights different cultural destinations and time periods throughout the 105-acre park, with cultural vistas featuring live entertainment, food, drinks, games and more. Up this year are China, Portugal and even Neverland, as well as more yet-to-be-announced locales.

There will be more details to come in the next few weeks, including operating hours and additional fun such as date night activities, but tickets to the 2025 Lanterns Festival are available online now.
