When dreams rise to meet the stars
Every November, the skies of northern Thailand come alive with light and hope. In 2025, the Chiang Mai CAD Khomloy Sky Lantern Festival once again transforms the night into a breathtaking sea of glowing wishes.
Held on November 5–6, 2025, at the CAD Cultural Center Lanna in Mae On District, about 30 km east of Chiang Mai, the festival is part of Thailand’s ancient Yi Peng and Loy Krathong traditions — celebrations of light, renewal, and gratitude.
Over 15,000 people gather beneath the stars, each releasing a paper lantern (khom loy) into the sky, carrying personal wishes for love, peace, and good fortune. Guests also float krathongs (decorative baskets) on nearby waters, letting go of worries and welcoming new beginnings.
Beyond the lantern release, visitors enjoy Lanna-style music, traditional dance, and hill-tribe performances, along with authentic Thai cuisine and eco-friendly lanterns made from biodegradable materials.
For two magical nights, the sky over Chiang Mai becomes a living artwork — a reflection of unity, peace, and dreams taking flight.
May every wish rise high and illuminate our world with hope.
