Tourists struggle to find authentic cultural event experiences in unfamiliar cities

Visitors to Vancouver seeking to celebrate Lantern Festival lack centralized, reliable information about where events are happening, how to get there, and what to expect. Current solutions are fragmented across multiple websites, outdated tourism boards, and word-of-mouth, leaving travelers uncertain about authenticity, timing, and logistics. This creates anxiety about missing cultural experiences or ending up at tourist traps instead of genuine celebrations.
