🏮 YiPeng , 2026
🗓️ November 24-25, 2026
📍 Chiang Mai, Thailand 🇹🇭
Here are five facts that could make your mesmerising trip to the Yi peng lantern festival more efficient-
1️⃣ It’s technically two festivals happening together, sky lanterns (Yi Peng) + water lanterns (Loy Krathong), so the “one iconic shot” you’ve seen is only half the story.
2️⃣ The mass release everyone posts about is ticketed and sells out fast, verified sellers only, scams are common this season.
3️⃣ You can’t just light and release a lantern wherever you feel like it, it’s restricted for safety reasons, so know before you go.
4️⃣ Not all lanterns are equal, street-sold ones are a genuine fire hazard, only the official eco versions are safe to release.
5️⃣ Bring cash. Most vendors, krathong stalls, and small ceremonies won’t take cards.
Watch thousands of glowing lanterns light up the night sky as you release your wishes into the universe.
This bucket-list festival is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won’t want to miss.
