Sugarloaf Mills is excited to host a new spectacular festival of lights, food, dazzling performers, themed villages and so much more. Illuminate, a Chinese Lantern Festival produced by Firefly Productions will be lighting up the season.

Lanterns symbolize joy, merit, good luck, and brightness in the upcoming year, and this “light” is well-evident as you wander through Illuminate ’s maze of beautifully-lit pieces of art, scaling more than 20feet tall. The walk-through encompasses 3 themed exhibits, all custom-designed and handcrafted in Zigong, China then shipped by truck, train and boat for a voyage of 35 days to our corner of the world...only to go through another 30 days of installation on site at Sugarloaf Mills! Visitors can experience the rich culture of Ancient China with a stroll through the Forbidden City, where they will be greeted by the emperor and his Terracotta Warriors, and pass through the belly of a whale for a glistening look at life Under the Sea. The last stop en route is one that certainly couldn’t be left out of a holiday light show: Christmas Village!

But that’s not all!

International food and artisan vendors will be available int he covered Global Pavilion. So what are you waiting for? Experience the Season of Lights at Illuminate!
