by Ruth Hogan

Capella Sydney is among the hotels to host Lunar New Year festivities for guests and locals.

From January 28th to 16th February, the hotel is offering a programme of experiences in collaboration with various Chinese culturalists and associations.

On January 28th, Lunar New Year’s Eve, the celebrations began with a traditional Eye-Dotting and Lion Dance Ceremony at Farrer Place, featuring a performance by Jin Wu Koon, one of Australia’s oldest dragon and lion dance associations.

Head Pastry Chef Arthur Carré has curated a limited edition Lunar New Year Afternoon Tea at Aperture that celebrates oriental cuisine with an Australian twist, with such items as mandarin lamington.
