Welcome to the Dragon Festival web site and home to the Borders Chinese Cultural Association (BCCA).

The BCCA aims to promote cultural interaction between asian and non asian people in the Borders primarily through organising the Chinese New Year Dragon Festival in Galashiels every year.  The Lion Festival 2007 was the Borders first ever public celebration of Chinese New Year.  Since its success, the event has developed into a much larger scale Dragon Festival with live performances of Lion Dancing and Chinese Market Stalls.

 

  
The Dragon Festival planned for Sat 24th January 2009 celebrates the mighty Year of the Ox!  Check out the links for more details, find out your chinese zodiac animal and join in on all the fun and excitement of Chinese New Year in the Scottish Borders!
