Springvale’s annual Lunar New Year Festival was a dual celebration of Year of the Snake and Australia Day on Sunday 26 January.

Thousands basked in the sunny entertainment including cultural dances, singing, foods and of course the spectacular lion dances, rounded off with night fireworks.

The massive attraction was organised by Springvale Asian Business Association.
