Downtown Summerlin to celebrate lunar new year
Downtown Summerlin, the vibrant and walkable urban core of the Summerlin master-planned community, will honor Southern Nevada’s rich Asian heritage with its annual Lunar New Year parade on Feb. 9 along Park Centre Drive.
Marking the Year of the Dragon, the colorful event includes pre-parade festivities starting at 6 p.m. Featuring fan dancers, an oversized dragon, percussionists and the traditional lion dance, the parade, which is free and open to the public, is all new this year and hosted by Downtown Summerlin with Best Agency, Lohan School of Shaolin and K-Star Training Academy.
