Chinese New Year: Stowell Street

This Event has passed

Celebrate Chinese New Year in Newcastle with a whole host of fun taking place on and around Stowell Street on Sunday 22nd January!

Head to Bath Lane where an array of stalls will be serving up delicious Chinese food and selling arts, crafts and Chinese health products. There'll also be a Children's Marquee offering kid-friendly arts and crafts sessions including lantern-making and calligraphy, plus a funfair with rides, games, trampolines and an inflatable slide.

Of course, it wouldn't be Chinese New Year without a traditional dance procession and this year there'll be three - the Lion, the Dragon and the Unicorn dances! Check out the dance procession timetable below:
