Program Description

Event Details

The Lantern Parade returns to one of its original locations - Longview Park! Join the Library and the Rock Island Parks and Recreation Department for a Party in the Park, featuring hotdogs and popcorn (while they last,) games, a bounce house, community organizations, and the finale, the illuminated Walking Lantern Parade!

Make a cardboard lantern before the event and walk as a group, family, or individual. 

Free cardboard boxes and instructions will be available at the Rock Island Downtown Library.  Supplies to make a paper lantern will be available night of the event.  

Please note: If you make your own lantern before the event, we suggest using a battery-operated light source to illuminate it.
