AUCKLAND LANTERN FESTIVAL 3rd-5th Feb 2012
Albert Park, Princes St, Auckland CBD
This is the biggest Asian event in Auckland! Every year the Asia New Zealand Foundation organizes this event to celebrate the start of the Chinese New Year. It's a time where lots of lanterns are held throughout Albert Park and international performers on the stage. Of course, there's the neverending rows of food stalls. And there's the fireworks display on the last day.
We were there to cater to the empty stomachs. Chinese had a tradition of eating vegetarian food during Chinese New Year, so we were there with various vegan dishes and snacks. There was also our supply of organic soymilk which quenched the thirst of many. All in all, it was fun.
