KUBO Organizing Project and KUBO LB presents the 8th Annual Long Beach Parol Lantern Festival, a holiday event to celebrate Filipino community and culture.

The 8th Annual Long Beach Parol Lantern Festival will showcase the Filipino culture, small businesses, and multiple crafting workshops to create parol lanterns. Attendees are encouraged to display their star-shaped creations in the event’s parol showcase for a chance to earn prizes.
