“The Midnight Lion Dance for Chinese New Year happened in Philadelphia from 11:30 pm – 1 am, January 27th-28th. The dance started at Race and 10th Streets and continued through China Town as business and shop owners received blessings for the New Year. Firecrackers were the source of all the excitement and celebration. Approximately 200-500 people attended the celebrations for Chinese New Year in Philadelphia.”
