CHINESE NEW YEAR 2010

Welcome to our Chinese New Year Celebrations. Also known as The Spring Festival, this is the most widely celebrated event in the Asian calendar. In 2010 we look forward to welcoming The Year of the Tiger. Traditionally a family celebration, the partner organisations invite individuals, friends and families to come together at a series of events and workshops across Beeston, Gedling, Nottingham and Rushcliffe where you can be introduced to crafts and music, see exhibitions of art work, and enjoy our fireworks finale at Highfields Park.

'Just wanted to say how fantastic the fireworks were last night. I thought they were great last year, but last night was just spectacular, so in time with the music too. The love heart fireworks were a nice touch also. It was the best display I have been to and I will look forward to next Chinese New Year and encourage my family and friends to come along too. Well done.' - Jacqui Trickett
