Working with: Families and Young People Programmes Manager, Engagement team at Royal Museums Greenwich
About the project
Each year, RMG hosts a Lunar New Year Festival celebrating the cultural traditions, contemporary creativity, and community connections of Lunar New Year as marked across East and Southeast Asia. However, we did not run the festival in 2025 as the space was closed for redevelopment and so 2026 will be the first time the festival has run in two years.
The festival features performances, workshops, talks, and family activities, and is delivered in close collaboration with local communities, cultural organisations, and artists. It is a joyful, inclusive event that celebrates both heritage and the diversity of modern London.
For 2026, we are looking to expand the festival’s co-curation, ensuring the programme reflects the breadth of cultures that celebrate Lunar New Year — including (but not limited to) China, Vietnam, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Mongolia, and the diaspora communities connected to them.
