Lantern festival lights up Esquimalt this weekendEsquimalt Lantern Festival, one of the most popular annual events in the township, runs for two days this week, with everything from music and lanterns to puppets and interactive art installations spread throughout Gorge Park & Pavilion.

The free all-ages event gets underway Thursday at 5:30 p.m. with a by-donation lantern making workshop, setting the stage for the next day's main event.

A pre-sunset gathering kicks off the Friday schedule at 5:30 p.m., with live music, face paint, food vendors, and giant puppets joining the Nikkei Cultural Society, which will demonstrate how attendees can add a Japanese symbol to their lanterns. That is followed by a musical performance at 6:45, leading along the water to the beach in a procession of lanterns and light.

The park is open at 7:30 p.m., and will feature activities that include an Enchanted Forest, Magical Gardens, and Mystical Beach. Local musician Brooke Maxwell will lead Happy Cat Karaoke Choir at 8 p.m., with the event winding down at 10 p.m.
