Ottawa Lumière Festival

The Lumière Festival is an enchanting evening event that brings together professional artists and performers with community members to celebrate the beauty and magic of light and lanterns.

Stanley Park will be lined with enchanting lantern sculptures created by professional artists and a variety of performers – dancers, musicians, stilt walkers and story tellers will add to the magical atmosphere.

Musical bands lead the way along the water’s edge, and participants carry handmade paper lanterns that they have created at a Lumière lantern workshop or purchased at the Festival. Dressed in midsummer eve costume - fairies, pixies, dragons and elves - children proudly carry their own lanterns as their fairy wings bump behind them.

In the water The Rideau River Swanboat Fisher fishes for luminous fish and canoes float by with their own brightly lit lanterns. Fairy dancers weave in and out of trees and a fire demonstrator shoots flames high into the night sky. The lantern labyrinth, made of hundreds of small lanterns, shines enticingly and the wishing tree glows beautifully with the colourful wishes people have attached to its branches.

As the light begins to dim, hundreds of lantern lights flicker and Stanley Park will be under the spell of the enchanting magic of the Lumière Festival!
