At 14:38 on 8 February, EAST Beijing’s lobby will come alive with the exhilarating rhythms of a traditional lion dance performance. The ceremony begins with the eye-dotting ritual, symbolising the awakening of good fortune and blessings for the year ahead. The agile “Stepping High” movements and the breathtaking “Balancing on the Pole” acts represent prosperity, growth, and continuous success.
More than a mesmerising performance, the lion dance reflects the deep cultural significance of strength and auspiciousness in Chinese tradition. We warmly invite you to join us at EAST Beijing to experience the vibrant energy of this time-honoured celebration and welcome the New Year with joy and positivity.
