Frequently asked questions

Q: Is it possible for children to participate? What is the price for children?
A: There is no restricted age. However, due to the large numbers of people and the fire used to throw lanterns, it can be dangerous for unaccompanied children.
The child price depends on each venue. Some apply the price the same as adults from 8 year and older.

A: Traditional Lanna lanterns are large and usually take two or three men to launch. You will find some volunteers on site. They will be happy to help you.

Q: Will floating lanterns cause environmental problems such as land and water pollution or forest fire?
A: We only provide our customers with lanterns that meet local government standards. The lantern is designed to go off after burning for 10 minutes, and prevent fire in case it falls on power cables. Using only natural and recyclable materials like paper and bamboo, we make sure the floating lanterns do not cause pollution.
