Looking for family-fun activities that everyone will enjoy for the Chinese New Year? Then visit the San Francisco Zoo on Sunday, February 21 to celebrate Lunar New Year presented by Panda Express! To commemorate the Year of the Tiger, Lunar New Year features interactive, culturally-themed family entertainment for all ages. Come see the Red Panda Acrobats and the Chung Ngai Dance Troupe’s dazzling performances of traditional Lion and folk dancing, Chinese yo-yo tricks and amazing contortions. Additionally, the Chung Ngai Dance Troupe will give kids and adults a chance to learn a few yo-yo tricks of their own and teach everyone the skills behind the Lion Dance. It’s a celebratory day full of entertainment, crafts and more.
Zoo visitors can also take a self-guided Zodiac tour through the Zoo. This fun-filled scavenger hunt adventure will lead guests to the animals found on the Chinese calendar. Plus, everyone who completes the Zodiac tour will receive a lucky red envelope with a surprise inside, courtesy of East West Bank! Lastly, the day wouldn’t be complete without a visit to see the Zoo’s beloved tigers – Padang, Leanne and Tony.
The Zoo’s Lunar New Year festivities will be held from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. at the Zoo’s Playfield Promenade. Activities and entertainment at the Zoo’s Lunar New Year celebration is free with paid admission.
