Minor Mishap Marching Band's Winter Solstice Lantern Parade

Presented by Minor Mishap Marching Band and Tapestry Dance Company at The Seaholm Power Plant

Minor Mishap Marching Band’s Winter Solstice Lantern Parade!

Please join us for a celebration of light, music and community, on the longest night of the year! Let’s all make lanterns (flashlight-based, no flames, please!) and gather together out in nature, under the dark sky, to celebrate music and community and being alive. Won’t that be beautiful? Minor Mishap Marching Band will play music from 6-7 pm. The “parade” route is extremely short to make it easy for small children, and people of all ages, to attend! This is a free, family-friendly event. All are welcome.

The beauty of this event depends on YOU! Make lanterns! It’s easy and fun! Please, flashlight and flameless lanterns only. No flames allowed, ok?

This project is supported in part by the Cultural Arts Division of the City of Austin Economic Development Department.
