The Place d’Armes will host festivities celebrating the Chinese new year on Saturday.

One of the highlights of the day is the traditional dragon and lion dance and parade (example pictured), performed by a Parisian troupe, which kicks off at 2:30pm. 

Stands and activities ranging from tai chi to papercutting and more will be set up on the plaza throughout the day, with a range of culinary delights--including traditional dumplings--available for tasting.

The afternoon celebrates the year of the pig and is organised by the Confucius Institute at the University of Luxembourg, in partnership with the China-Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce and the Union Commerciale de la Ville de Luxembourg.
