2015 is an important year for the lancaster & Morecambe Chinese New Year Festival as it marks an incredible 10 years since it began.

From its humble beginning at a local community centre, it has grown to include major events held in both lancaster and Morecambe’s town centres each with their own attractions and unique atmosphere – with thousands of visitors expected to take part in the festival this year.

Artists from across lancashire will be showcasing their talent across the Festival and a newly commissioned lantern Dragon will be joining us for this year’s events.

The Morecambe Chinese New Year Funfair will be packed with rides for adults and children, market stalls and parade. Whilst the city centre streets will come alive for the lancaster Chinese New Year Carnival with an electric atmosphere brimming with live acts, street markets and our biggest parade! We will then fi nish the festival by marking this special occasion with our 10th Anniversary Gala at lancaster town Hall.

With so much going on, come visit lancaster and Morecambe where a warm welcome awaits for Chinese New Year.
