Overview

With the Year of the Ox almost upon us, The Rocks is turning its regular weekend markets into a Lunar New Year celebration. From Friday, February 12–Sunday, February 14 and Friday, February 19–Sunday, February 21, red and yellow lanterns, live music, performers, food stalls and a giant inflatable ox will be lining the cobblestones laneways.

As is usually the case at The Rocks' regular Friday Foodie Market, there will be plenty of tasty treats to choose from, including an Ayam food truck serving up noodle favourites such as mee goreng, pad thai and char kway teow.

Once you've had your fill of food, you can stop by The Rocks Square for free mahjong, zodiac readings and calligraphy (from 11am–2pm each day) or catch a DJ set from Mowgli May (4–9pm Fridays). When you're done, you can wander along Circular Quay to the Sydney Opera House and gaze at the 12 giant Lunar Lanterns.
