Macau Chinese New Year Celebrations

Macau’s Year of the Rooster celebrations involve, unsurprisingly, the God of Wealth. There’s a 14 float parade that will wend its way through the city on two separate evenings (30 Jan, 4 Feb). Performers and singers from Macao, Hong Kong and China will provide the entertainment. A massive fireworks display caps festivities on the 30th January.
