One of the largest nighttime events in Varsity College’s history will usher in the ‘Year of the Tiger’ in 2022.
‘Festival of Lanterns’ is set to light up the night with hundreds of lanterns, lights and magical moments.
Join us in the Senior Learning precinct on our Secondary Campus, from 6:00pm on Friday the 18th of February as we celebrate Chinese New Year, the Varsity way. With free entry offered to our College families, as well as everyone in the local community, we can’t wait to welcome you to our inaugural event.
Sit back and relax as you’re entertained by a host of international artists, including Chinese Lion Dancers and traditional Chinese Drummers. Then watch in awe as the lights dim every 15 minutes for a light show which features more lighting elements than the Sydney Harbour Bridge on NYE!
Then, enjoy a range of Chinese cuisine as our food trucks provide you with tasty treats from across the globe. Featuring six amazing food vendors, there will be something for everyone. For our older guests, there will also be a licensed bar, giving you a chance to wind down after a big week.
Festival of Lanterns officially closes the curtain on the Chinese New Year celebrations for 2022, starting off our year with a bang!
We can’t wait to see you all there in 2022.
