自從元宵張燈之俗形成以後，歷朝歷代都以正月十五張燈觀燈為一大盛事。梁簡文帝曾寫過一篇《列燈賦》："南油俱滿，西漆爭燃。蘇徵安息，蠟出龍川。斜暉交映，倒影澄鮮。"描繪當時宮廷在元宵張燈盛況。隋煬帝時，每年正月十五舉行盛大晚會，以招待萬國來賓和使節。據《隋書·音樂志》記載：元宵慶典甚為隆重，處處張燈結綵，日夜歌舞奏樂，表演者達三萬餘眾，奏樂者達一萬八千多人，戲台有八里之長，遊玩觀燈百姓更是不計其數，通宵達旦，盡情歡樂，熱鬧非常。在唐代發展成為盛況空前燈市，中唐以後，已發展成為全民性狂歡節。
唐玄宗(公元685——762)時開元盛世，長安燈市規模很大，燃燈五萬盞，花燈花樣繁多，皇帝命人做巨型燈樓，廣達20間，高150尺，金光璀璨，極為壯觀。唐代是實行宵禁，夜晚禁鼓一響就禁止出行，犯夜要受處罰;唯獨在上元節，皇帝特許開禁三天，稱為"放夜"。沿至宋朝，張燈由三夜延長至五夜，燈綵以外還放焰火，表演各種雜耍，情景更加熱鬧。《東京夢華錄》中記載：每逢燈節，開封御街上，萬盞彩燈壘成燈山，花燈焰火，金碧相射，錦繡交輝。京都少女載歌載舞，萬眾圍觀。"遊人集御街兩廊下，奇術異能，歌舞百戲，鱗鱗相切，樂音喧雜十餘里。"大街小巷，茶坊酒肆燈燭齊燃，鑼鼓聲聲，鞭炮齊鳴，百里燈火不絕。
到明代，朱元璋在金陵即位後，為使京城繁華熱鬧，又規定正月初八上燈，十七落燈，連張十夜，家家户户都懸掛五色燈綵，彩燈上描繪各種人物，舞姿翩翩，鳥飛花放。龍騰魚躍，花燈焰火照耀通宵。鼓樂遊樂.喧鬧達旦，這是我國最長燈節，清代，滿族入主中原，宮廷不再辦燈會，民間燈會卻仍然壯觀。日期縮短為五天，一直延續到今天。
