Dandenong Festival of Lights

The Dandenong Festival of Lights will provide an incredible Chinese cultural experience for the whole family to share and enjoy through its display of 32 beautiful and unique silk lanterns. The vibrant light displays, some of which are an impressive 20m wide and 8m high, come in all shapes and forms, including windmills, Chinese Zodiacs, dinosaurs and many more.

The festival begins on the 11th of September and will run until the 18th of October. It will be open to the public from 6pm to 10pm daily and held in the Dandenong Showground in Greaves Reserve. If you can not make it on the 10th, we'd love for you to come along to the festival another day that suits you. In addition to the light displays, there will be unique Chinese performances on stage daily, including Chinese tea ceremonies and acrobatics show.
