The Fire Dragon Festival returns Friday, September 19th, to Saturday, September 20th, 2025 in Vancouver’s Chinatown. It will be another majestic and exciting event, welcoming visitors old and new.

The event will bring the Chinatown community together past and present through celebration, cultural activities and performances, culinary exploration, and the appreciation of intangible heritage.

Our vision is to establish a community tradition through partnership and collaboration that will strengthen awareness and education about Chinatown’s cultural legacy for years to come.

Guests are invited to come see and touch the Fire Dragon, enjoy dragon dancing workshops, and witness an exciting Fire Dragon dance performance.
