The 2026 CAD Chiang Mai Yi Peng Festival celebrations take place on November 24–25, 2026 at the government-certified CAD Cultural Center Lanna in Mae On District. With over 25,000 attendees per night (20% more than 2025), it is Thailand’s largest organized sky lantern event. We have been official partners since 2018. Six ticket types are available: Standard, VIP, Premium, Gold, Platinum, Elite. No on-site tickets. Online booking only. Tickets usually sell out 3 months in advance—early booking recommended for better prices and group seating. Highlights include Lanna cultural experiences (markets, tribal shows, workshops), Muay Thai demos, folk dances, live music, a Lanna buffet dinner (vegetarian options), monk-led rituals, candle ceremonies, and the synchronized release of 25,000 biodegradable lanterns plus a 20-minute fireworks show. Each guest receives 2 sky lanterns and 1 water lantern.
