Dazzling lights and enchanting displays are set to return to Sunstone Park Saturday, Sept. 9, from 6 to 10 p.m.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the annual Luminary Festival in North Delta, celebrating the end of summer with creative performances and sparkling illuminations.

The Luminary Festival invites everyone to illuminate themselves with costumes and lights, as many have become inventive with battery-operated string lights, EL wire, or glow sticks from previous years.

The Festival includes activities such as crafting lanterns to light up the park, ranging from paper mache lanterns to lace-covered mason jars.

An assortment of food trucks, including Big Red’s poutine, Sky Thai, and Peace Sweetz Hawaiian Shaved Ice, will be available at Sunstone Park, ready to satisfy various appetites. There will also be vendor stands with LED novelties for purchase.

Meanwhile, everyone is encouraged to participate in the Lantern Parade at 8:30 p.m. to cherish this illuminating tradition within the community.

To ensure easy access to the event, free parking and shuttle services will be available between North Delta Recreation Centre and Sunstone Park, starting from 6 p.m. Additionally, accessible parking spots will be reserved on Delsom Crescent for those who require closer proximity to the Festival.
