Singapore City

Chinatown is galloping full speed into the Year of the Horse, and you’re invited along for the ride. From January a whole two months, the precinct will be decorated in festive cheer as the Chinatown Chinese New Year Celebrations return with a dazzling street light-up, cultural performances, hands-on workshops and the much-loved International Lion Dance Competition. This year’s theme 'Galloping into the Prosperous Year' takes shape through paper-cut-inspired designs and a show-stopping 8.8-metre golden horse installation. Feast your senses on the lantern-lined streets, eye-catching orchids, flowing red drapes and a packed programme, from countdown parties to crafty workshops – all the reasons to celebrate the season in Chinatown.
