LightUP is Sure to Spark Your Imagination!

The LightUP Fest is presented for the first time in the East Coast area by AM Capital Star LLC.  This 8-week exhibition combines the latest lighting technology and artisan crafted lanterns to showcase the rich heritage, tradition and culture of the world.  With 77 stunning displays presented in different themes, the LightUP Fest promises a magical night for everyone that visits.  The 4 major themes are Tour of Fantasy; Freedom America; Mysterious East and Magical World.  One of the featured highlights unique to this exhibit is the display of the US Capitol. 

In addition to incredible artisan crafted light displays, there will also be 3 daily performances of acrobats, dancers and musicians included in the exhibit.  An international food court with variety of unique cuisine, including chefs from China cooking up authentic street food, will be on site for attendee’s to grab a bite while enjoying the Lights.  An interactive craft and art section will showcase the intricate culture and tradition with hands on activities for all age groups to participate and enjoy.

The LightUP Fest has been fashioned after Houston's "Magical Winter Lights" and Pheonix's "Lights of the World", rated as “one of the top 5 light show(s) in North America” by USA Today. It is a magnificent and culture rich display that will provide immense entertainment and educational value to entire families.  The experience is enriching and unforgettable, not to mention a lot of fun.   The Festival also serves as a vehicle preserving an important heritage by building a large capacity event that merges new technology with the old lantern making craftsmanship, bringing to life a rare combination of creativity
