2012 Chinese New Year: A Majestic Dragon Welcomes You at Pavilion KL


Can you feel the beat and heat of 2012 Dragon year coming? Pavilion KL launched its ‘Majestic Dragon Festival’ on 6th Jan. Centre Court, Level 2 again was transformed into the ‘Dragon Festival’, a first-of-its-kind themed bazaar with unique dragon arts and craft offerings, rainbow calligraphy, dragon beard candy and a photo portrait dressed in traditional Chinese costume.

As you step in Pavilion KL, hanging above the Centre Court is a Magnificent 600-foot long dragon, signifying power, wealth and luck, that sweeps down to welcome shoppers as they enter the mall.

Joyce Yap, CEO-Retail of Pavilion KL, launched the Chinese New Year campaign by symbolically awakening the dragon, unleashing its positive energy. Once the dragon was awakened, it joined another dragon to make a Double Dragon dance. The 2 dragons were joined by the 8 Lion Dance, intensifying the good luck and fortune.

“The Dragon is one of the most positive spirits of the Chinese zodiac, signifying power, wealth and luck. As such, our aim was to create a grand and awe-inspiring experience for this Chinese New Year. And what better way to illustrate this than with the majestic 600-ft long dragon gracefully hanging above us. We are delighted that our larger-than-life dragon has already received a lot of attention as a popular photo hot spot,” said Yap.
