Norden Farm Lantern Parade

About

The Lantern Parade returns to illuminate Maidenhead on Saturday 7 December 2024.

This year's theme is Our Animal Neighbours!

The Lantern Parade is free to attend and open to all. You don't need a lantern to take part - just head down and celebrate with the community! The Parade encourages local people to get together, create fantastic artworks, dance and parade their fabulous creations through Maidenhead town centre.

Entertainment starts at 4.30pm and the Parade departs at 5pm. Keep an eye on our website for announcements about this year's line up!

Norden Farm are once again working with SameSky to bring you the Parade and Workshops, an award-winning community arts charity who have been creating fantastic lanterns, costumes and community events since 1987.

Get Parade ready and make a Lantern!
Get involved at one of our Lantern Making workshops, running throughout November and December. Our expert lantern makers will guide you through the process to create your own lantern to illuminate at the parade.
