As we kick off a new year, we welcome the Year of the Dragon with a celebration of festivities. On January 29, 2012 at 10:15 am, the streets will be flooded with people to watch the colorful floats come down Trafalgar Square to Rupert Street. The festivities will be filled with fun and excitement, with Chinese dragons, acrobats and lions at 12 pm. You will get a chance to see the commencement ceremony of the Dotting of the Eye with Chinatown president Stanley Tse and Boris Johnson, along with a fireworks display at 5:40pm. So come down and enjoy great food and culture with your loved ones.
