The lanterns will be lit at dusk which is around 8:30 PM.
Lantern enthusiasts will line-up and proceed in a line of light up the hill of Victoria Park, continue around the lantern installation and seat themselves in a comfortable spot on the hill to watch the fire performance and lantern theatre.
After the fire show people will be able to take in the full glory of the lantern installation in the darkness of the warm summer evening.
