This Lunar New Year, Collins Square is running a three‑week cultural campaign inviting the community to visit the Main Retail Plaza and take part in a symbolic activation. Visitors are encouraged to write down their wishes, hopes, dreams or intentions and hang them on a 4‑metre‑tall, 6‑metre‑wide blossom tree, representing blessings, prosperity and good fortune.
On Tuesday 17 February at 11:30am, Collins Square will host the most spectacular lion and dragon dance in Docklands. Featuring more than 20 performers, the performance will include traditional blessings symbolising strength, wisdom and good luck for the year ahead.
