Giant Lantern Parade

Friday 5 December 2025 – Cardigan Giant Lantern Parade as part of Cardigan’s Festival of Light.

Lantern making workshops at Small World Theatre from 10:00 – 15:00 on 9th, 16th and 23rd November

BOOKING is essential because places are limited – £3 per lantern.

Lantern Making is suitable for ages 8+ and all children must be accompanied by an adult. Families with younger children are encouraged to work together. Book a place for each lantern maker attending over the age of 8. Young children must work with a parent/guardian, so please book one place for both of you.

Lantern Making Guidelines for the Public

Please arrive on time at 10am because it takes a day to make a lantern from scratch using willow, tissue paper and glue.

Please bring an apron and a packed lunch.

Spend the morning creating your lantern framework using sustainably grown willow. Get messy in the afternoon adding glue and tissue paper to your frame. All lanterns are stored safely at Small World Theatre until the Parade.
