Harvest Moon Lantern Festival, Burleson TX

Harvest Moon Festival 2024

We are so excited for the fourth annual Harvest Moon Lantern Festival! We will start the festival off with the 8th Annual Pooch Parade at 11 AM! Then, you can enjoy a vendor show put on by DFW Shopz and performances from local groups throughout the day. Food and drinks will be available for purchase right here at The Standard and some of our favorite Food Trucks! Starting at 6:30, Beer and Wine will be available for those with a valid I.D., and right around sunset, we will venture along the trail to Bailey Lake and create a memorable experience with our decorated lanterns! You won’t want to miss it!

This is a dog friendly event, and a limited supply of Day Of tickets will be available. We encourage you to buy your tickets and reserve your spot in advance!
