THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE LISMORE LANTERN PARADE
What a magical night, and day, it was. The weather was perfect and once again tens of thousands lined the streets and kept the CBD buzzing well into the wee hours.
We would like to thank all those who were in the parade, and those who watched it. Also thanks to all the entertainers throughout the day, and our very special crew of volunteers who make it happen.
LightnUp Inc, the organisation behind the Lismore Lantern Parade that lights up the streets and hearts of Lismore every year, is a charity that relies on sponsorship and support from other local organisations, businesses and community members.
