This year’s Oakridge Park Lunar New Year Celebration has been so successful that Westbank and QuadReal Property Group have extended the festivities to Feb. 26th.
The extension allows Oakridge Park to offer additional programming, as the cultural events, including children’s ballet classes with the award-winning Goh Ballet, family portraits, and floral arrangement workshops, which have been held since Jan. 16, have so far been fully booked.

Widely considered the most important festival in the lunar calendar, 2023’s festival celebrating the Year of the Rabbit is also being commemorated through special live musical performances, complimentary new year family portraits, and unique décor. Iridescent rabbits rest throughout the decorative landscaping in the lobby of the Fairmont Pacific Rim, designed to reflect the vision of the running loop at Oakridge Park and rice paddy mounds within the landscape design of the park. Throughout the festival, attendees can book a reservation for a curated sushi and omakase menu by Michelin-Awarded Chef Masayoshi Baba in Fairmont Pacific Rim’s The Lobby Lounge & RawBar.
“As Vancouver’s new town centre and a cultural hub for the city, Oakridge Park, at its core, is a celebration of Vancouver’s multiculturalism and diversity. We envision the Food Hall at Oakridge Park as a central organizing element, where residents and visitors from around the world can come together and connect through food,” shares Ian Gillespie, Founder and CEO, Westbank. “Chef Masayoshi’s 2023 Lunar New Year offering will give guests a glimpse of the inspiration behind the many culinary experiences we have planned at Oakridge Park. We hope you enjoy.”

A cultural hub for Vancouver and the city’s designated new town centre, Oakridge Park reimagines one of North America’s top-performing shopping centres into a new neighbourhood within a 10-acre park and urban forest. When complete Oakridge Park will comprise more than 3,000 homes across the housing continuum, over one million square feet of retail and workspace, a new community centre and library, a flagship Goh Ballet Academy, indoor and outdoor performance and recreation spaces, as well as a multitude of culinary experiences including Time Out Market’s first Vancouver location. The entire project is made up of collaborations with the world’s leading architects, designers and artists, including Tokyo’s esteemed Azuma Makoto, whose floral exhibitions and botanical sculptures inspired the lobby and interiors of Oakridge x Westbank.
