Description
Welcome to the Year of the Rabbit with live performances and activities by our amazing community partners.
We're thrilled to see the return of the exciting and colourful lion dance. Catch vibrant song and dance performances, marvel at the martial arts demonstrations, and learn about Chinese and Korean culture. There are plenty of craft and traditional activities, and look out for our roving pandas! You can also buy beautiful Chinese goods for sale in the shop.
During the celebrations, pick up one of our rabbit detective trails to search for rabbits throughout the museum!
The Year of the Rabbit starts on 22 Jan 2023 and finishes on 9 Feb 2023.
According to the Chinese Zodiac, people born in a year of the Rabbit are kind-hearted, witty and cheerful. People born in this year have pink and purple as their lucky colours.
