The Bristol and West of England China Bureau is holding a major celebration to usher in the Chinese Year of the Rabbit next week.
Councillor Paula O’Rourke, Lord Mayor of Bristol, will join leading figures from Bristol’s business community at Wong’s Restaurant in Denmark Street for the Chinese New Year banquet on Thursday, 16th February.
The bureau’s annual showpiece event is hosted by its chief executive Dianne Francombe, OBE, who said: “Our event brings together civic dignitaries, representatives of businesses and organisations engaging with China, students and scholars and enthusiastic supporters of harmonious relations between our great nations.
“It is a wonderful platform to celebrate the Chinese New Year, experience Chinese culture and a wonderful banquet while engaging in conversation and learning about the level of engagement there is between our region and China across all aspects of business and education.”
