Happy Chinese New Year 2026

This Chinese New Lunar Year marks the Year of the Horse (17 February 2026 – 5 February 2027). Horses have long symbolised freedom, energy, independence, and adventure in Chinese culture, appearing in art, literature, and mythology. Those born under the Horse sign are said to share these spirited qualities: energetic, independent, and always ready for adventure.

Whether you share these traits or are simply curious about other cultures, join the festivities at Kotzia Square to experience firsthand the vibrant traditions of the Spring Festival. Enjoy live performances every hour, kung fu demonstrations, traditional Hanfu costumes, calligraphy workshops, crafts, bubble tea, authentic Chinese flavours, and a traditional tea ceremony.

The event is perfect for visitors of all ages, offering a colourful, interactive way to experience Chinese culture and celebrate the Lunar New Year.
