Facing the waters, the Coastal Lunar Lanterns bring cultures together to celebrate the Lunar New Year. Featuring Indigenous artists from this area now known as Vancouver in a collaboration with C3 Society, and an Indigenous artist from Taiwan, the artworks are a physical and beautiful bridge across the oceans. At the iconic location of Jack Poole Plaza, through arts and culture, we are free to share our own stories in our own ways.

Dragons are free-flying creatures, with a variety of colours, sizes, and shapes. How can they inspire us?
In the Year of the Dragon, The Lantern City encourages everyone to see beyond the familiar and imagine a community where we are all Born to be Free. With multiple lanterns spread across various iconic sites in the city where diversity shines, be sure to see these beautiful artworks by artists of different cultural backgrounds.

Swing by Granville Island, šxʷƛ̓ənəq Xwtl’e7énḵ Square, Pendulum Gallery, and Jack Poole Plaza with your camera, and show us The Lantern City that best represents the freedom in your eyes.
