19 pretty cool photos of Chinese New Year in London

29 January 2017: London held its annual Chinese New Year celebrations.

The biggest Chinese New Year celebrations outside of Europe were held in London’s Trafalgar Square, spreading across Leicester Square and Chinatown. To embrace the diversity of London’s crowd, we created a short video of people saying “happy Chinese New Year” in their own language.

Stage performances included dragon dances and singing with a guest appearance from the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan.

Here are 19 pretty cool photos we took during the day.

All photos belong to Resonate.
