Where to Watch Lion Dance for Chinese New Year on Kaua‘i
Kung Hei Fat Choi, Garden Island friends! We are honored to return to Kaua‘i once again to help ring in the Chinese New Year. Come celebrate with us as we perform our traditional lion dance around Kaua‘i. It’s going to be a festive and busy weekend. First on Friday, our schedule takes us from Hanalei to Hanapepe. Then on Saturday, Lihue is the place to be to celebrate the Lunar New Year with lots of opportunities to enjoy a lion dance performance from us. Join us at one or more of these public performances, and let’s welcome the Year of the Horse 2026 with a bang.
