"The firecracker detonation, with expected attendance by local politicians and community leaders, is intended to ward off evil spirits. From 11:30 am to 2:30 pm, a large stage will feature all-day cultural performances by traditional and contemporary Asian-American singers and dancers. Plus, a dozen lion, dragon and unicorn dance troupes will march through Chinatown’s main streets, including Mott Street, the Bowery, East Broadway, Bayard Street, Elizabeth Street and Pell Street."
