Chinese New Year
The Chinese New Year is the biggest festival celebrated by the Chinese community. Every year in the weeks before Chinese New Year, Chinatown bustles with many activities organised to celebrate the new year. These include a month-long festival carnival & bazaar, and nightly stage cultural shows & performances.
