Water Lantern Festival: Ascarate Lake Will Literally Be Lit Again
After a few rescheduled dates, it looks like the El Paso Water Lantern festival is finally going to happen. Water Lantern Festival had announced they would be at Ascarate Lake in March of 2020. Well, little did we know a pandemic would roll through and cancel everything and put us on lockdown.
The Water Lantern Festival then pushed it to August of 2020 still unknowing of how bad we would have it. This event had postponed so many times until they finally came to the conclusion Covid-19 wasn t stopping.
