The Chinese New Year celebrations in Perth’s Northbridge are always a spectacular display of culture, and 2018 was no exception.

One of the highlights was the breathtaking Lion Dragon Dance performance by the Yaolin Kung Fu Association.

This performance wasn’t just any Lion Dance—it was an acrobatic display on poles that had the audience on the edge of their seats. The dancers demonstrated incredible skill and strength, maneuvering the lion with precision and grace atop tall poles, a traditional and highly revered feat in Chinese culture. The vibrant colours of the lion costume, combined with the rhythmic drumming, created an atmosphere of excitement and celebration, bringing the spirit of the New Year to life.
