    “The Lantern Festival (simplified Chinese: 元宵节; traditional Chinese: 元宵節/元宵; pinyin: yuánxiāojié) or (Yuanxiao Festival), also known as the Shang Yuan Festival (simplified Chinese: 上元节; traditional Chinese: 上元節; pinyin: shàngyuánjié) is a Chinese festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunar year in the Chinese calendar.”

    So the answer to your question is “somewhere/everywhere in China”

    Ontario Place, Toronto. They have this festival every year there I believe around the time of the CNE.
