Lunar New Year Concert 2026

Presented in the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall, this Lunar New Year Concert brings together vocal music, instrumental performance and Xiangsheng comedy in a vibrant cross-genre programme. Familiar melodies sit alongside contemporary works, with virtuosic violin and expressive saxophone performances adding colour and energy to the evening. 

Several artists are widely recognised through appearances on China’s annual Spring Festival Gala, one of the country’s most watched cultural broadcasts, creating a sense of shared cultural memory associated with the Lunar New Year. 

Designed for audiences of all ages, the concert blends music, storytelling and stage artistry to celebrate the festive season with warmth, connection and joy in one of the world’s most iconic performance spaces.
