Time Out says

While the Year of the Rat promises to bring motivation and stability, it’s going to start with a party. The folks at World Square will host a Lunar New Year celebration with traditional performances and augmented reality (AR) shows. They’re making a statement with their ‘ratrobats’, which will be a kind of giant, rodent-based art installation that’s inspired by Chinese acrobatics and performers.

The festivities will run for just over a month, when you’ll be able to observe these installations come to life through AR, and watch a spectacular lion dance performed on top of precarious poles.
