Magical Winter Lights

The largest lantern festival ever staged in the United States, Magical Winter Lights made its U.S. debut in Houston at Sam Houston Race Park in 2015. Running daily for 52 days, the event was founded and produced by People Generation Global Communication in partnership with the China Zigong Lantern (CZL) Festival & Trade Company, one of the world’s premier lantern companies, which designed and constructed more than 100 lantern sets for the festival. Different from other traditional holiday lighting events, Magical Winter Lights bases its designs on Chinese lanterns that are transformed into larger-than-life remakes of well-known landmarks and global landscapes. The festival was divided into seven themed sections, including Magical, Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, Dinosaur Land and America, which featured lantern sets that included Houston’s hometown sports teams, the Western stockyards and the city skylines.
