About the Lunar New Year

The Nanaimo Chinese Cultural Society (NCCS) is proud to present our annual Lunar New Year Gala! In 2026, we welcome the Year of the Horse. The Horse is the seventh symbol of the Chinese Zodiac, and is associated with energy, independence, a free spirit, and unwavering perseverance.

Lunar New Year, often called the Spring Festival or Chinese New Year, is the most important holiday in China and Chinese communities around the world. It is not only celebrated in China — many other Asian communities such as Vietnam, Korea, Malaysia, and Singapore also partake in honouring this remarkable holiday. Traditionally celebrated over a two week period, this holiday is centered around the gathering of friends and family, to share in the feasting and celebrating of this joyous time.

We are honoured to invite all members of our community to join us for this year's Lunar New Year event, which will be the largest celebration in our region!

What to Expect

The Gala will include lion dancers, a variety of musical and dance performances, and this year, a special highlight: the mesmerizing art of 川剧变脸 (Sichuan Opera Face Changing). Of course, the evening also features an incredible Asian style buffet. There will be a 50/50 draw, making for a most exciting and unforgettable evening. Get your tickets now before it's sold out!
