Kung Hei Fat Choi Day 5 - Part 3

The schedule of events were as follows:
3:30 P.M. - Parade of Floats - Assembly in front of Post Office
6:00 P.M. - Chinese Filipino Cultural Show
8:00 P.M. - Fireworks



The crowd in Plaza Lorenzo Ruiz gathered earlier than usual for the 5th day of the Chinese New Year celebration. Drums & chang-chang played as dragon and lion dances performed on the street amidst the popping firecrackers.



Mayor Lito Atienza, Congressman Miles Roces and Honorable Ali Atienza were the special guests that evening. They awarded the cash prizes to the winners of the contests from the past 3 days.




Scholars of Mayor Atienza performed the Chinese Filipino cultural dances.





The celebration was ended with a spectacular fire works display.
This has been the longest celebration since I can remember and there are still 2 days to go before Chinese New Year.
