Founded in 2018, Kaleido Entertainment was created with a clear vision: to deliver immersive, family-friendly experiences that celebrate light, culture, and creativity.
Our debut event, the Winter Lantern Festival in New York City, quickly became a beloved seasonal tradition and grew into the city’s largest and most popular light festival. With over 100 media placements—including The New York Times, BBC, and Time Out New York—the festival captivated hundreds of thousands of visitors through breathtaking artistry and cultural storytelling.
Building on this success, Kaleido expanded its portfolio with three additional seasonal experiences: SeaLight Festival, Autumn Glow Festival, and Glow Wild Festival. Each is uniquely designed to reflect the spirit of its season and location, featuring large-scale lantern displays, interactive installations, and live entertainment.
Today, Kaleido festivals span venues across the East Coast and Midwest, partnering with botanical gardens, historic estates, city parks, and zoos. As we continue to grow our national footprint, our mission remains the same: promoting public art, cultural appreciation, and moments of shared wonder through unforgettable light experiences.
