LANTERN FESTIVAL IN CHIANG MAI THAILAND - Yi Peng Lantern Festival

The Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai Thailand was the most incredible thing we have ever experienced! Also called the Yi Peng Lantern Festival, watch as we show you 5,000 sky lanterns float above the Chiang Mai night sky. You have to add this to your Thailand bucket list!

We’re sure you’ve seen it. Whether on Instagram, YouTube, or in the Tangled lantern scene, the Lantern Festival in Chiang Mai Thailand has stolen the hearts of travelers worldwide. That was certainly the case for us! Formally known as the Yi Peng Lantern Festival, it takes place in November on the full moon in Northern Thailand, specifically in Chiang Mai. We essentially planned our entire trip to Southeast Asia surrounding the lantern festival, making sure we would be in Chiang Mai to witness this famous lanternfest.

Yi Peng, sometimes spelled Yee Peng, is held during the same time as the Loy Krathong festival, however they are two separate Thailand holiday’s. Loy Krathong is the river floating lantern festival and Yi Peng is the sky lantern festival. This mass lantern release in particular was held at the Cowboy Army Riding Club. We were able to enjoy traditional Thai food, a Thai dance, Buddhist Monk ceremony, and release our sky lanterns along with 5,000 others into the night sky. To be honest, we got a little emotional… and if you’ve ever attended, you can understand why. The Yi Peng Lantern Festival is considered one of the best of Thailand celebrations, and for good reason. The floating lantern festival premise is gaining popularity and new events are popping up worldwide. But, if you want to experience the original mass lantern release, then you absolutely must purchase your tickets to the lantern festival in Chiang Mai Thailand!

Although this was a paid event, there is a wonderful free Yi Peng sky lantern festival celebration held throughout the city of Chiang Mai Thailand. Although the free event is wonderful, don’t expect to see this many lanterns concentrated in one place. To get this experience, you must purchase tickets to any of the Yi Peng events for the lantern festival in Chiang Mai.
