Year of the Fire Horse: Street Banner Parade
Celebrate Lunar New Year in Haymarket and Chinatown on Friday 28 February with colour, movement and festive spirit!
As part of 4A’s Year of the Fire Horse celebrations, the Street Banner Parade spills onto the streets with a vibrant community procession led by artist Jason Phu, alongside friends from The Kogarah Storehouse, including the Chinese Seniors Group, Indonesian Activity Group and TENUN Art Group.
Carried through Haymarket and Chinatown, the parade transforms the streets into a collective expression of culture, movement and joy. Featuring hand-made banners, live performance and community participation, the procession brings Lunar New Year traditions into the public realm in a spirit of generosity, celebration and shared presence.
