Chinatown Mini Night Market & Film Night: Shaolin Soccer
Join us as we launch our exciting new event series, Chinatown Mini Night Market and Film Night, starting off with a classic banger: Shaolin Soccer!

The film portion will start with a screening of episode 1 of In Chinatown, followed by a special screening of the cult classic movie Shaolin Soccer at 7pm.

To ensure inclusivity, interpretation will be available in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.
Don’t miss out on this unforgettable night of fun and community camaraderie in the heart of Chinatown!
Things to bring:
- Water to stay hydrated
- Cash! If you want to shop and buy food!
- A chair as chairs are limited and seating will be prioritized for seniors
Through each Chinatown Together event, we are dedicated to backing grassroots efforts, amplifying the genuine voices of our community, reclaiming our cultural roots and safe spaces, and standing firmly united against encroaching gentrification. Celebrating community joy is our most powerful resistance to these forces – let’s come together and celebrate in Chinatown as one!

For the health and safety of all our community members (especially seniors, disabled and immunocompromised folks), we are making this event mask mandatory (preferably KN95, KF94 or N95). If you do not have a mask, we will provide masks on site.
