Don't miss out on the 2nd Annual Awakening Chinatown Festival Sunday, May 28th NOON - 5PM! Experience a Kung Fu demonstration, Lion Parade, Chinese Opera performance and enjoy arts, crafts, games and more at this free family event.
Explore all of Victoria's Chinatown shops and eateries, historic Fan Tan Alley, the original precinct beyond Fisgard Street, and learn more about the amazing stories of the people and places that make up the oldest Chinatown in North America!
In support of the Victoria Chinatown Museum Society (VCMS) and in collaboration with the Wong Sheung Kung Fu Club, Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association (CCBA), Pacific Opera Victoria (POV) and local businesses.
The VCMS is dedicated to educating the public about the Chinese Canadian immigrant story, the role of Chinese Canadians in the Canadian economy and telling the stories of the built environment, focusing on how Chinatown is relevant today. The creation of a permanent ‘living museum’ in the oldest remaining Chinatown in North America will serve as a tribute to the vital role the Chinese community played in the cultural fabric of the City of Victoria and British Columbia, becoming a hub for learning, tourism and celebration.
