Sponsorship Recognition Program

The Edmonton Chinatown Multicultural Centre (Centre) is a non-profit organization incorporated in 1983 under the Societies Act of Alberta and became operational in 1985. The objectives of the Centre are to promote Chinese culture, encourage cultural exchanges amongst all ethnic groups, and enhance community social welfare.

Traditionally, the Lunar New Year’s Eve celebrations were held in the Centre, but the increased interest and the number of attendees over the years had led the organizer to seek larger facilities such as the Shaw Conference Centre and Northlands AgriCom where we had over 10,000 attendees. For the past four years, we held our event in the “Ice Palace” at West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton. It had been a phenomenal success. We had close to 25,000 people who visited the booths or observed from the railings overlooking the skating rink.

Despite inclement weather in the winter months, participants were enthusiastic about attending our event. The media has been very supportive over the years and provided extensive coverage. We wish to invite your organization to play an active role in the 2020 event.
