Glasgow lantern festival branded 'scam' and likened to Willy Wonka Experience by angry punters
dailyrecord.co.ukA lantern festival has been branded a "scam" by angry punters who queued up for the "unforgettable" experience only to be left extremely disappointed.Around 600 were estimated to have turned up to the event, which was being run by Lantern Festival UK, at Glasgow's Petershill Park football ground on Saturday, September 14.Organisers promised the event would "create magical moments that leave you breathless and filled with wonder", with families told they would enjoy an "experience that will touch your heart and soul."But punters were left fuming after shelling out £35 per ticket only to be handed cheap lanterns containing a helium balloon with a taped-on LED light.
Some attendees were given balloons that ripped before the launch, while others claimed online that there were no lanterns left by the time they got to the front of the queue.Disgruntled customers slammed the festival as "pathetic" and even likened it to the infamous Willy Wonka Experience, which took place in Glasgow earlier this year and made global headlines after images and videos from the farcical event.A clip shared on TikTok shows balloons being sent haphazardly into the sky, with only a handful of them lit up.
Another video shows hundreds of "disappointed" customers walking away from the event in Springburn. Disgruntled @missamme111 captioned the footage: "Okay bye £35".Keri Mooney, who went to the event with her friend Megan, was left gutted by the disappointing experience.
