Overview

The Year of the Rabbit is launching with an auspicious bang right in the heart of the CBD at QV Melbourne. From Friday, January 20–Thursday, January 26, the precinct is going all out for its Lunar New Year festivities, complete with a giant luminous bunny installation.

Dancing Bunnies will descend on QV Square from 10am–10pm daily, featuring eight rabbits towering at 4.5 metres tall, backed by soundscapes and decked out with glowing lights each night. You can snap a photo with the giant bunnies any time for free, while the first 50 QV customers to spend $20 onsite each day and visit the installation will be in with a shot at winning prizes via a lucky red envelope.

Meanwhile, the Chinese Masonic Society will be treating audiences to traditional lion dances at 7pm on January 21, 22 and 26, handing out more lucky envelopes along the way.

And as far as Lunar New Year feasting goes, you'll find a swag of options — including Old Beijing's exclusive LNY banquet menu, Korean street eats from Chunky Town, Taiwanese desserts courtesy of Meet Fresh, lively fare by Thai Town, Sura's Korean barbecue and more. You can even continue the festivities with a jam session at the multilingual Booths Karaoke.
