Dragon lights canceled
News broke early this week that the Chinese Dragon Lights display’s summer return to Reno was canceled due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions.
The six-week-long light show, which was scheduled to open on June 28 at the Wilbur D. May Arborteum and Botanical Garden, 1595 N. Sierra St., was set to bring more than 30 new, custom Chinese lantern installations. Representatives of Reno’s Artown festival were informed by organizers of the light display of the cancellation on Feb. 28.
