During the celebration, attendees will be able to make their New Year wishes at the Lam Tsuen Wishing Trees and take part in a number of traditional activities to welcome in the year of the dragon.

These include throwing wishing-placards, sampling traditional Hakka region snacks at the local food carnival or taking part in the Wishing Lanterns Lighting Ceremony.
