Lunar New Year at Adelaide Arcade
On Monday 23 January 2023, Adelaide Arcade will celebrate the Lunar New Year with a traditional dance performance by local not-for-profit Phap Hoa Lion Dance (PHLD).
To commemorate the Year of the Rabbit, from 1pm PHLD will perform their annual routine with drum musicians and dancers in traditional lion costumes throughout the historic Adelaide Arcade before spilling out into Rundle Mall. During the festivities, Adelaide Arcade will be handing out red envelopes containing a chocolate coin, with some envelopes containing $25 Adelaide Arcade vouchers for lucky shoppers.
Traditionally, Lunar New Year marks the welcoming of Spring and the New Year and follows the moon calendar. Lion dances are commonly performed during this period to bring good luck and drive away evil spirits.
Adelaide Arcade will also be transformed into a magnificent display of Chinese lanterns to symbolise happiness and bring good luck for the new year.
