Hi @Petra_M yes, the city especially the view spot for boat race and floating lantern can be very crowded and many roads are closed to vehicle to accommodate the crowd. During the day it is boat race, people come to see boat race. Evening time there is giant floating lantern but traditional people also float their own-made small lantern and make a wish before they float it. The festival also happen on full moon night so there is also an offering (literally) to the moon and there is another story about this offering to the moon as well. Traditionally people will offer Ombok (kind of smash rice) with banana and afterward enjoy eating it with family members and neighbors.
