Chinese New Year Extravaganza at Kargo Mkt
Dates
1
Celebrate Chinese New Year with fun for all of the family at Kargo MKT! For the first 50 customers through the door on Saturday 1st February, a fortune gift bag will be on offer filled with mysterious gifts! There is an action packed day planned including a children’s Bao making workshop and a spectacular Lion Dance performance in the afternoon.
Visitors can also take part in a huge Red Packet Hunt to win a cash voucher worth £68 to spend at Kargo MKT. Why 68 you ask? The number holds positive connotations in Chinese culture because of its phonetic association with good fortune and wealth. The number 6 (liù, 六) sounds like the word for “smooth” (liú, 流), symbolizing smooth progress or success. The number 8 (bā, 八) sounds like the word for “prosperity” or “wealth” (fā, 发).
The running order includes:
