Lunar New Year at QV Melbourne

QV Melbourne welcomes the Year of the Rabbit with an interactive installation of eight 4.5 metre tall Dancing Bunnies in QV Square, energetic lion dancers meandering from the square to Old Beijing on Artemis Lane, as well as a host of dining and entertainment experiences.

Complete with imaginative sounds and night lights, QV invites Melburnians and visitors to experience and dance alongside the giant red bunnies as they celebrate Lunar New Year. An entirely free experience, the bunnies offer the perfect Lunar New Year photo opportunity, and will be open from 10am-10pm daily for LNY revellers to explore and experience, before or after the dining and entertainment celebrations.

Lion dances will be performed by the pre-eminent Chinese Masonic Society, Melbourne’s most experienced lion dance team, sponsored by Melbourne’s latest Chinese dining institution Old Beijing, which opened in QV Melbourne’s Artemis Lane in 2021. The lion dancers will impress and delight on three occasions: 7pm on 21 January (Lunar NYE), 7pm on 22 January (LNY Day), and 7pm on 26 January.
