Located in one of Braybrook's most colourful areas, the Quang Minh Buddhist Temple, this celebration of the Lunar New Year is, if anything, more raucous than its better known Chinatown equivalent. The street is closed to traffic for the day. Small children play with firecrackers, people sell red and yellow flowers, to bring good luck for the New Year. It has a lively, family-oriented atmosphere, with traditional entertainment. The event date varies with the Lunar New Year (usually February-March). The Vietnamese street party takes place on the Sunday before the New Year, to avoid clashing with the Chinese celebrations held in the following day.
