The activities of the Creative Lanna project under the Strategic Education Development Plan of Chiang Mai University, Creative Lanna Festival, are divided into 2 sessions with the following details:
Creative Lanna Festival by ACCL (December 8 - 10, 2023) from 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
This event opens a creative space for people to experience something new, showcasing the unique cultural heritage of Lanna through cultural enrichment. It aims to enhance the cultural value of the region and promote global collaboration in the field of tourism. The festival supports designers, students, and staff in creating contemporary art that can attract tourists through creative tourism. It also acts as a hub for regional creative thinking, especially in promoting and supporting the night-time economy in CMU Square.
The creative activities, funded by cultural heritage, include the following highlights:
"Creative Lanna Awakening": This activity gathers the Northern culture, traditions, and lifestyles of Lanna people from the past to the present, using light and sound to project these elements onto ancient architectural structures that are over 100 years old.
