Ottawa 
Events Description
Inspired by the traditions of the Vietnamese Moon Festival—a time of family reunions, moonlit lantern walks, and childhood joy—Phố Lồng Đèn brings this beloved celebration to Ottawa for the first time.
More than a festival, it is an invitation for all ages to rediscover their inner child, delight in glowing lanterns, and experience Vietnamese heritage in Ottawa’s multicultural community. Under a sky of lights, we will share food, stories, and traditions—finding wonder, connection, and a sense of home together.
