A Lunar New Year market will be held in Leeds Minster, building on the success of last year’s ground-breaking event.
Hundreds visited in 2024 for the chance to enjoy food and drink, Chinese calligraphy, tea tasting, games and music, and to buy from arts and crafts stalls.
And the Minster’s warm welcome to all will be repeated on Saturday, February 1 from 11am to 2.30pm.
“Everyone is invited to join us and celebrate the Lunar New Year with Hong Kongers and the wider Chinese and East Asian community," said Revd Dave Ho Young of St Barnabas, Alwoodley, who is helping organise the event.
Canon Paul Maybury at Leeds Minster said: "We are delighted to host this event again this year. It was such a joyful and interesting occasion last year and we look forward to welcoming many visitors."
2025 is the Year of the Snake, an animal in Chinese culture that is associated with wisdom, flexibility, and intuition and it begins on January 29.
