Market bag. Fun workshops are also available to participate in at an additional cost.

While you’re walking around check out the yummy food and drinks and of course, the mini exhibitions that will be showcasing the origins and evolution of this celebration throughout different Asian countries.

These exhibitions provide an inside look into the Lunar New Year’s historical significance such as the zodiac cycle, the symbolism behind various traditional foods, and the customs associated with the holiday!

There are multiple sessions you can choose from when purchasing tickets such as the VIP Hour which gets you access to the full market (not just the hour) and a custom Hey Fun swag bag full of goodies.
