On 26 January 2014, Buckingham Avenue in Springvale will come alive with the flamboyant celebration of the Lunar New Year Festival.

Chinese New Year is sometimes referred to as the Lunar New Year. The Lunar New Year festival is based on the lunar calendar and is celebrated on the first full moon of the lunar new year. A lunar calendar is a calendar that is based on cycles of the lunar phase. The lunar festival usually runs for 15 days.

This festival will commence at 9am at the Springvale market area on 26 January 2014. The spectacular programme itinerary will incorporate a number of awe-inspiring performances. Highlights include lion dance and dragon dance, martial arts displays, Vietnamese and Khmer folk dancing, fire cracker shows and fun rides. When all the fun activities and performances get you exhausted and famished, sample tasty treats from the numerous food stalls at the festival.

Springvale market in Buckingham Avenue is highly accessible by both car and public transport. You can take the Pakenham/Cranbourne trains and disembark at the Springvale railway station. Springvale market is only 10 minutes' walk from the Springvale station. Alternatively, if you opt for the car there is ample parking on Springvale market precinct.

Approximately 70,000 people will flock to the Springvale Lunar New Year Festival. Learn more about this festival by visiting this website or by contacting the Springvale Asian Business Association on 0418 178 126.
