To welcome in the Year of the Dragon, Birmingham’s Lunar New Year Festival will be taking place on Sun 11 Feb 2024, 12pm – 6pm.
As in previous years, Hippodrome Square will host an exciting main stage programme featuring astonishing performances, not to mention the spectacular lion and dragon dances. Celebrations will take place in and around Birmingham Hippodrome, throughout Southside District, and will include family activities, craft market stalls and a spectacular firework finale.
All performers will be asked to attend a dress rehearsal at Birmingham Hippodrome on Sun 4 Feb. Due to the large number of performers, it is important you attend the dress rehearsal for a short slot during the day (timings will be confirmed). You will also need to bring along a copy of your music backing track, as well as providing this in advance over email.
If you (or any members of your organisation) are interested in performing as part of the programme, please email us at festivals@birminghamhippodrome.com by Sun 7 Jan.
Please include in the following information in your reply:
- Type of performance(s)
- Length of performance(s)
- Number of performers
- Performers age range
- Main contact Name
- Phone number
There are limited slots available to perform on the main stage, we hope to accommodate all requests and will be in touch to discuss with you in mid-January.
