Richfield Light Festival

Join our 3nd annual Richfield Light Festival! The magic of this lantern light festival is truly enchanting. As dusk falls, the sky will begin to twinkle with the soft glow of lanterns being lit and released into the night sky. Families and friends will have the opportunity to gather together, taking part in exciting activities such as laser tag, inflatables, and live music performances leading up to the lighting. Food trucks will be offering delicious delights and drinks to enjoy throughout the evening.

This festival is a magical and unforgettable evening YOU won't want to miss!
