Family Friendly Activities to Do This Lunar New Year

February 16, 2026

As the Year of the Horse gallops in, it’s officially time to gather the clan, embrace the chaos, and fill your calendar with festive outings that keep both the kids and adults entertained.

Whether your ideal celebration involves flowers, fireworks, or finding creative ways to tire the children out before dinner, here’s a round-up of family-friendly things to do around Hong Kong this Lunar New Year.

1. Flower Shopping at the Flower Market in Victoria Park Causeway Bay

If there’s one place that captures the spirit of the season, it’s the Chinese New Year flower markets — especially at Victoria Park in Causeway Bay. All 14 markets across the city run from Feb. 11-17, bursting with orchids, peach blossoms, dyed pussy willows, kumquat trees, and the occasional strange knobbly plant that someone’s aunt insists is essential for good fortune.

Each flower comes with its own symbolism: peach blossoms for romance and fresh beginnings, kumquats for prosperity, chrysanthemums for resilience and longevity, and narcissus for renewal. Pick up a slightly overpriced plant and bring some auspicious energy into your living room.

Location: 1 Hing Fat St, Causeway Bay

Dates: Feb. 11-17, 2026

2. Go Watch a Lion Dance at The Peninsula Hong Kong

Few things say “New Year is here” quite like a lion dance, and The Peninsula Hong Kong is bringing one of the most spectacular shows on Feb. 17, 2026, at 9 AM.

Watch as elaborately costumed lions burst into the hotel lobby, drums pounding in sync with their every move. The traditional eye-dotting ceremony “awakens” the lions, setting the stage for a mesmerizing performance of leaps, spins, and blessings for good fortune.

Just as thrilling as you remember — this is an unforgettable way to start the holiday.

Location: Salisbury Rd, Tsim Sha Tsui

Date: Feb. 17, 2026

3. Cathay International Chinese New Year Night Parade

Get ready, Tsim Sha Tsui — because on Feb. 17, the Chinese New Year Night Parade turns the streets into one long, glowing runway of color and lights. Kicking off at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Piazza and weaving down Canton Road, Haiphong Road, and Nathan Road, before ending near the Sheraton Hong Kong Hotel & Towers, the parade promises a sparkly evening from 8:30 PM to 10:30 PM.

This year, the streets will dazzle with colorful lights, lanterns, and a high-energy line-up of local and international performers. Although tickets for the spectator stands at the Cultural Centre are sold out, the parade can still be enjoyed for free along the route, just stake out a pavement spot and soak up Hong Kong’s biggest, most joyful street party to ring in the Year of the Horse.

Location: 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon

Date: Feb. 17, 2026

4. Fireworks Display on the Harbourfront

Hong Kong’s skyline is set to steal the spotlight on Wednesday, Feb. 18 at 8 PM, when the annual Chinese New Year Fireworks Display explodes over Victoria Harbour in a 23-minute, 31, 888-shell spectacle. Coordinated by the Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau and sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, this year’s show blends heritage with creativity that will light up Hong Kong like never before.

Themed “Prosperity Gallops Across Hong Kong,” the light show opens with horses charging across the sky, building into sweeping layers of fireworks that evoke thousands more in motion.

Expect symbolic nods throughout, from glowing “8” formations and golden ingots, to a serene sequence ending with the character “吉” for good fortune. The finale, titled “Triumphant Achievement”, promises crown-shaped fireworks and rapid-fire bursts that go out with a bang.

Enhanced lighting effects will amplify the drama, and you can catch the show from both sides of the harbor: Tsim Sha Tsui, Central, Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, Hung Hom and even Mid-Levels vantage points. For the full cinematic effect, tune into RTHK Radio 4 (FM 97.6–98.9) for synchronized music.

Location: Multiple Locations across Hong Kong

Date: Feb. 18, 2026

5. Ocean Park

If you want your CNY to be equal parts tradition and cuteness overload, make a beeline for Ocean Park Hong Kong. The park’s Lunar Fiesta is going full festive mode with high-energy lion and dragon dances thundering across Aqua City Lagoon (Feb. 17 to Feb. 22), plus surprise appearances from the God of Fortune, who will be making the rounds at Waterfront Plaza all day to personally hand-deliver those prosperity vibes.

Over at the Whirl-a-Wish Panda Garden, giant windmills spin alongside panda favorites Le Le, Ying Ying and their cubs Jia Jia and De De. There’s also AXA Presents: Ocean Park x Sanrio “Marine Wonders”, where six beloved Sanrio characters dive into ocean-themed adventures. To top it off, Ocean Park’s Cathay International Chinese New Year Night Parade float is on display, complete with mini Ocean Express trains, cable cars and Ferris wheel details.

The “2-Can-Go” Adult Package is priced at HK$807, reduced from the original price of HK$1076. The “3-Can-Go” Adult Package is available for HK$1131, down from its original price of HK$1614. Get your tickets here.

Location: Ocean Park, 180 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Aberdeen

Dates: Feb. 17 to Mar. 22, 2026

6. Visit Times Square’s CNY Wonderland

Kick off the Year of the Horse at Times Square, Causeway Bay with “KNOT KNOT HAPPY NEW YEAR," running from Jan. 30 to Mar. 3, 2026. This free, daily wonderland is packed with festive fun: snap under a giant 4.5-metre peach blossom tree, wander glowing lantern corridors, dive into immersive art domes, and try your hand at knot-tying or sweet-making. With fortune-filled decorations and endless Instagram moments, it’s the ultimate Lunar New Year playground for families and photo-hunters alike.

Location: Times Square, Matheson St, Bowrington

Dates: Jan. 30 to Mar. 3, 2026

7. Festilumi

Looking for a night out that everyone — humans and furry friends included— will love? Festilumi is lighting up the Wan Chai Harbourfront Event Space with its first-ever Hong Kong edition: an open-air, nighttime arts experience featuring over 20,000 glowing sculptures and towering LED installations.

As darkness falls, the promenade transforms into nine magical worlds, from endless fields of light poles to twinkling starry scenes. It’s the ultimate backdrop for romantic strolls, squad photo ops, and dazzling IG content.

Tickets are HK$128 (or grab a seven-person bundle for HK$792). Pet owners, take note: Sundays are “Pets Nights”, so don’t forget to bring your four-legged friend along for a glowing evening wander. Get your tickets here.

Location: Wan Chai Harbour Front Event Space

Dates: Dec. 12, 2025 to Apr. 26, 2026.

8. AIA Carnival

If you’re not quite ready to let go of peak holiday madness, there’s still time to catch the fun at AIA Carnival before it wraps on Mar. 1, 2026 at the Central Harbourfront. This year’s edition is the biggest yet, with over 50 attractions and eight new rides — including the Big Ben Tower, officially the world’s tallest mobile swing ride, flinging brave souls 80 meters into the sky (very on-theme for “rising” into the Year of the Horse).

The real showstopper, though, is the Winter World Circus by Gandeys Circus — a brand-new 60-minute production packed with gravity-defying stunts, fire-fueled acts and elite roller-skating, fresh from a 40-year global tour.

Expect Argentinian gauchos, Mongolian roller-skaters, and motorcross riders inside a glowing steel sphere, as well as a lot of clowning around. Circus tickets start from HK$150 (HK$250 standard), include free entry to the carnival, and students get free carnival access plus BOGO circus deals. High-octane, chaotic, and fun— the ingredients of an epic Lunar New Year night out. Book your tickets here.

Location: AIA Carnival, Lung Wo Road, Central

Dates: Dec. 22, 2025 to Mar. 1, 2026

9. Noah’s Ark in Ma Wan

Why not head over to Noah's Ark Hong Kong and have a go at traditional Chinese arts and crafts. The park is hosting a series of workshops centered around traditional folk crafts and intangible cultural heritage, from DIY blessing horse knot charms and sugar painting to bamboo weaving and postcard-making.

There are also animal encounters and themed builder activities dotted around the space, making it easy to spend a slow afternoon wandering, snacking, and trying something new.

Ticket promos are generous too — including buy-two-get-one-free admission, game tokens, dining coupons and even a complimentary one-way ferry or bus ride. It’s a solid excuse for a day trip that is both festive and creative.

Queue-up tickets and game tokens are required for joining Blessing Horse Knots Charm D.I.Y., Sweet Sugar Painting Workshop and Bamboo Weaving Fun.

Location: 33 Pak Yan Road, Ma Wan, New Territories

Dates: Feb. 17 to Feb. 22, 2026

10. Cinema Outing

In the unlikely event that it rains – you can always head to the cinema. On this Lunar New Year is the cartoon feature film GOAT, a new action-comedy from Sony Pictures Animation.

Set in an all-animal world, it follows Will — a very small goat with very big dreams — who gets a surprise shot at going pro in roarball, a chaotic, full-contact sport dominated by much bigger, much fiercer players.

His new teammates aren’t too pleased about the rookie addition, but Will’s determined to shake things up and prove that size isn’t everything. Easy, feel-good viewing, plus it’s family friendly, for when you just want to sit back and switch off this holiday season. Get your tickets now here!

Valentine’s Day may be all about romantic love, but February is also the perfect time to honor the friendships that make life truly meaningful.

That’s where Galentine’s Day comes in, a celebration of your platonic soulmates, your ride-or-die pals, and the friends who know you better than anyone else. It’s a reminder that love isn’t just romantic; it comes in laughter-filled brunches, late-night heart-to-hearts, and adventures shared with those who lift you up.

This love month, why not give your friendships the spotlight they deserve? Here’s a curated list of Galentine's Day events and activities in Hong Kong that let you do just that.

Tea for Two

Sometimes the best conversations happen over a warm cup and a plate of sweet and savory treats. Afternoon tea in Hong Kong is a classic way to slow down, catch up, and dive into thoughtful chats with your friends, perfect for Galentine’s.

While you can also book afternoon tea at some of Hong Kong’s finest hotel lobbies, those looking for a more casual, budget-friendly, and relaxed setting can head to Hong Kong Parkview Teahouse. Nestled in a green oasis with floor-to-ceiling windows and elegant decor, it’s perfect for long conversations over light bites and a soothing cup of tea, giving you and your friends the space to catch up without the formality of a hotel high tea.

Their afternoon tea is priced at HK$378 for 2 people and HK$218 for 1 person, and includes delightful treats such as English scones, Smoked Salmon and Avocado Roll, Chestnut Chocolate Tart, Raspberry Jelly and Vanilla Cake Roll, and Mango Mousses Dome. You can enjoy it every Monday to Saturday from 3 PM to 6 PM, and until 5 PM on Sundays. You can book a table here.

Create Something Together

Crafting is more than just making pretty things. It’s a fun and hands-on way to bond with your friends while letting your creativity shine. Imagine spending the afternoon chatting, laughing, and getting a little messy, all while creating something meaningful together.

One perfect example is candle making, where you can immortalize the scent of a well-spent day or even design a fragrance that emanates pure friendship and good vibes every time you light it. Make Your Day Candle offers a variety of single-session workshops perfect for a Galentine’s outing. Choose from Moon Candles (HK$680), Honey wax Roses (HK$520), Dry Flower Scented Candles (HK$580), or even Wax Painting Workshops (HK$680), all designed for beginners and seasoned crafters alike. It’s a creative, memorable way to celebrate your friendships and leave with a keepsake that captures the day.

For Galentine’s, a dinner out is the perfect way to honor friendship over good food and lively conversation. You can book a table at one of Hong Kong’s many Michelin-starred restaurants, which offer exquisite cuisine and elegant settings. And yes, we have a list of spots that are perfect for group dining.

Or, for a twist that blends celebration with connection, you can join a hybrid dinner and networking event like the “Female Founders Dinner — Galentine’s Edition.” Designed for career women looking to share stories, meet like‑minded peers, and enjoy great food, it’s a perfect way to celebrate friendship, support each other’s journeys, and make the evening meaningful beyond the meal. The dinner is happening on Feb. 10 from 7 PM to 10 PM at 11Westside. Tickets are available here at HK$551.15.

Whether you’re sharing plates, toasting achievements, or simply enjoying each other’s company, a special meal makes the occasion feel memorable.

Join a Food Crawl

They say food is its own love language, and if a single brunch or dinner doesn’t quite satisfy your craving for connection and delicious bites, a food crawl might just be what you need.

Moving from spot to spot lets you share flavors and turn eating into an adventure with your favorite people. One standout option is the After Dark Food Crawl by Hong Kong Food Crawlers, which takes you on a five-stop evening journey through some of the city’s tastiest street food, local favorites, and specialty drinks. From visiting shops that sell egg waffles and Taiwanese savory pancakes to interesting snake specialty restaurants and shaved ice dessert stalls, it’s a playful and interactive way to turn your Galentine’s celebration into a full-on culinary adventure.

The best part? You can totally customize your schedules for the tour. Fees are at HK$702.69 per person (HK$507.50 for children).

Pet Dogs Will Soon Be Able to Enter Licensed Restaurants in Hong Kong

by: The Beat Asia

Published:
February 05, 2026

Good news, furparents! Your doggos may soon be allowed to accompany you on your dinner outings by mid-2026!

The Hong Kong government is set to introduce a new voluntary license program that will permit dogs to enter up to 1,000 restaurants, as part of efforts to support the growing pet-friendly economy, announced during the Chief Executive’s 2025 Policy Address. This follows a decades-long rule that bans pet dogs inside restaurants, which was enacted in 1994.

Under the proposed arrangement, select food establishments will be allowed to welcome dogs indoors. The program will initially be limited to around 500 to 1,000 permits, allowing authorities to monitor and adjust before expanding it. Due to safety concerns, hotpot and BBQ restaurants are not included in the scheme.

Restaurants may apply for a permit for HK$140. Once approved, establishments must display clear signage that informs diners that they are dog-friendly. While dogs are allowed inside, they will not be permitted on dining tables. Restaurants will also be prohibited from preparing food for pets, although owners may bring food for their dogs.

In turn, pet owners will be responsible for taking care of their pets. Pet dogs must be kept on a leash no longer than 1.5 metres or secured to a fixed object. Certain breeds, including Pit Bulls, Dogo Argentinos, Japanese Tosas, and Filas Brasileiros, will not be allowed indoors under the scheme.

The move is expected to give pet owners more options for casual meals, meet-ups, and weekend hangouts, while creating new business opportunities for the food and hospitality sector.

The initiative follows other recent pet-friendly efforts in the city, including the upcoming SPCA Dogathon charity event, where dogs will be allowed to ride on MTR trains.

While this is still in the works, you may check out these pet-friendly cafes in Hong Kong to bond with your loved ones while still having your furbabies with you!

For the first time, dogs will be allowed to travel on the MTR alongside their owners as part of Dogathon 2026!

The Hong Kong Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) has partnered with MTR Corporation to introduce this special one-day dog-friendly travel initiative, marking a rare moment when the city’s public transport system opens its doors to cute, four-legged commuters.

On Mar. 1, up to 1,200 dogs will be able to ride on select MTR lines around the city for the upcoming Annual Charity Walk and Pet Carnival! While it’s a big win for furparents and their furbabies, participants will need to follow a few guidelines to ensure a smooth and organized experience for everyone.

Passengers must sign up for the SPCA Dogathon 2026 via the official website, with a required donation of HK$90 to receive an MTR “one-day Woof Pass.” Each wristband is valid for one small- or medium-sized dog only, and availability is capped at 1,200 tickets.

Furparents and their dogs will be allowed on the last car of the train on Heavy Rail and Light Rail networks, with an unlimited number of journeys that day. Each dog must always be accompanied by its owner and must be kept inside their carriers while on the MTR. Pet trolleys are not allowed.

Dogathon 2026 culminates at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort with the Charity Walk, where participants receive a themed T-shirt and a reversible dog scarf by OHU! Design, and a medal at the finish line. Afterwards, the Pet Carnival offers shopping, pamper sessions, photo spots, and playful activities for furparents and furbabies alike!

It’s a one-tail-wagging day for Hong Kong’s beloved pups — and their owners — to enjoy a day out in the city together. Registration online via this link closes on Feb. 2, 2026, so make sure to sign up ASAP!
