New Year may have come and gone but there’s another excuse on the cards to celebrate (safely!). From 12–21 February, Sydney’s events calendar will be jampacked with events, performances and workshops ushering in The Year of the Ox. Watch the Sydney city precinct transform into a sea of red and gold, and take part in vibrant Asian cultural traditions. Here’s all the must-do events from the Sydney Lunar Festival 2021.

The Lunar New Year Lantern Illuminations are back this year! Always a hit with the whole family, the light displays are even more impressive this year. Take a nighttime stroll through Circular Quay, Sydney CBD and Haymarket, and discover 12 Lunar Zodiac animal illuminations reflecting their symbolic traits. Lookout for these picks this year — the 8 metre tall Monkey tower, cyberpunk-inspired pig and animatronic rat pack!
