The story

Huayi Chinese Festival of Arts in Esplanade

Huayi, Chinese Festival of Arts, is an annual Esplanade festival celebrating Chinese performing arts in Singapore, typically staged around the Chinese New Year period. It presents theatre, dance, and music from Singaporean and international Chinese and Chinese-diaspora artists, though this research could not confirm current programme specifics.

Huayi, Chinese Festival of Arts, sits within Esplanade's broader strategy of running dedicated annual festivals for each of Singapore's major cultural communities, a structure that also includes Kalaa Utsavam for Indian performing arts and Pesta Raya for Malay performing arts, giving each tradition its own curated national platform rather than treating cultural representation as an afterthought within general season programming.
