Every year the Chinese population of London paint the city red to welcome the new year according to their calendar. The iconic festivities are testament to the city's diverse and multicultural identity – a melting pot that welcomes anyone that wants to call it home. Join the hordes of people in Central London and be exposed to customs and traditions from the land of the rising sun. Expect Chinese lion and dragon teams, stalls, demonstrations and a feast of cultural activities. The scheduled activities finish at 6pm on the Trafalgar Square stage. This event is free and entry is on a first come first served basis, so it can't be guaranteed. We need your card details to store the event information in your profile, but rest assured, we won't charge you a penny.
