Why Choose Our Mobile Parade Lanterns?
Lightweight Engineering & Ergonomics: Parade performance is extremely sensitive to weight. We use specialized lightweight stainless steel to create frames, keeping the weight of adult wearable lanterns within 6-8kg. Combined with an ergonomic carrying system, we ensure performers remain comfortable and agile during long Lantern Parades.
Wireless Power & Long Battery Life: Say goodbye to restrictive wires. We integrate high-capacity lithium battery systems, supporting over 6 hours of high-brightness performance on a single charge. Using 12V low-voltage light sources not only saves energy but also guarantees absolute electrical safety when worn close to the body.
Immersive Interactive Performance: Our Parade Lanterns are not just props, but extensions of the characters. Through mechanical linkage designs, performers can control the lantern (e.g., a dragon swinging its tail, a butterfly flapping its wings), achieving a unified interaction between human and light, greatly enhancing audience engagement.
Float Customization & Vehicle Decoration: Beyond individual lanterns, we provide design and decoration services for large Parade Floats. Whether converting a golf cart into a glowing creature or building a giant themed float, we can perfectly conceal the vehicle beneath illuminated art.
Unlimited Customization Possibilities
Your imagination is the only limit. We offer comprehensive customization services, ranging from single-person wearable units to giant floats, covering all themes:
Animals & Mythology: Agile dragons, phoenixes, lions, or fantasy unicorns and deep-sea creatures.
Festive & Cultural Symbols: Santa Claus, Halloween pumpkins, Lunar New Year carp lanterns, and cultural totems from around the world.
Brand IPs & Logos: Transform your corporate mascot or logo into a walking illuminated billboard.

Manufacturing Process of Parade Lantern
Step 1: Lightweight Design:
We perform strict weight calculations at the beginning of the design, eliminating excess structures and prioritizing openwork shapes to reduce wind resistance and dead weight.
Step 2: Ergonomic Skeleton Welding:
We use lightweight steel to weld the skeleton and specially customize load-bearing support structures (such as shoulder strap interfaces and waist support points) to ensure even weight distribution.
Step 3: Battery & Light Source Integration:
We reserve hidden battery compartments and install high-capacity lithium batteries and low-voltage LED strips. Rigorous insulation testing ensures safety for close-body use.
Step 4: Durable Pasting & Waterproofing:
Considering parade friction and outdoor weather, we use more wear-resistant satin fabrics and apply multi-layer waterproof coatings to ensure performance regardless of wind or rain.

Parade Lantern FAQs
Have more questions? Feel free to contact us.
1. What is the commercial value of a Lantern Parade for an event?
A lantern parade is a marketing event with immense viral potential. The flowing visual effects of light instantly gather crowds and generate huge organic traffic on social media through audience photos and shares. It not only enhances festival interactivity but also serves as the best mobile advertisement for showcasing brand image and cultural soft power.
2. What is the secret to creating exquisite Parade Floats?
The secret lies in “Structure Concealment” and “Light & Shadow Storytelling.” We perfectly hide the vehicle chassis beneath the artistic styling and use LED light sources of varying densities to create depth. Most importantly, we ensure the floats are highly unified in theme and color with the surrounding handheld parade lanterns, forming a stunning, cohesive visual phalanx.
3. What are the precautions for hosting a Lantern Parade, especially regarding safety?
Safety is the primary consideration. Our products are designed to mitigate major risks:
Electrical Safety: We use exclusively 12V low-voltage power supply to eliminate shock hazards.
Weight Control: Strict ergonomic weight reduction prevents performer fatigue and injury.
Flame Retardancy: We use fire-treated fabrics to ensure absolute safety in crowded areas.
4. Why are Parade Floats an essential part of the event?
Floats serve as the “Visual Anchor” and “Mobile Stage” of the procession. While handheld lanterns provide interactivity, giant floats establish the grandeur and thematic tone of the parade. The combination of the two (giant floats + agile lanterns) constructs a perfect visual hierarchy with varying heights and dynamics.
5. How do I choose exclusive Parade Lanterns for my event?
The key lies in “Thematic Fit” and “Interaction Style.” You can inform us of your event theme (e.g., Ocean Festival, Christmas Parade), and our design team will recommend matching character stylings and design specific interactive movements (such as opening mouths or flapping wings), creating a one-of-a-kind custom solution for you.
