Street Photography Meets Chinese New Year – 2026 Year of the Horse – Liverpool
Celebrate Chinese New Year 2026 in Liverpool with a Welshot street and documentary photography workshop. This workshop (complete with masterclass in learning how to shoot from the hip) promises to immerse you in the rich culture and vibrant energy of Liverpool’s Chinatown. This unique experience combines the art of street photography with the lively celebrations of the Chinese New Year, offering a perfect opportunity to hone your skills while capturing the sights, sounds, and movements of this festive occasion.
Under expert guidance of team Welshot, you’ll explore everything from sweeping panoramic cityscapes to intricate close-up details. Whether you’re photographing the bustling streets, the dynamic flow of dance and movement, or the intricate architecture of Chinatown, this workshop will keep you inspired and engaged throughout the day.
We’ll meet at Liverpool One and stroll toward the iconic Chinese Ceremonial Archway, which towers above, marking the entrance to Chinatown, which is home to the oldest Chinese community in Europe. As you capture the dazzling array of colors, costumes, and cultural displays, you’ll have the chance to photograph the celebrations in honor of the Year of the Horse. It’s an opportunity to blend the rich history of Liverpool’s Chinese community with the energy of a global celebration.
Whether you’re a seasoned street photographer or a newcomer looking to explore a dynamic scene, this workshop offers an unforgettable way to enhance your skills while capturing the essence of one of the most vibrant festivals in the world.
