Description

As a landmark conservation project under the Nan Fung Group, The Mills Fabrica has been dedicated to nurturing local creativity through its three pillars: Nan Fung Store Hall, CHAT Mills Fabrica and The Mills Fabrica. Entering its seventh year, The Mills Fabrica further strengthens its role as a 'local creative engine', promoting the development of Hong Kong's creative industries and becoming a cradle for inspiring a new generation of creators, bringing more possibilities to the community.

With the upcoming Horse Year, The Mills Fabrica has meticulously planned a series of innovative and fun activities to bring laughter and joy to the new year. The newly established physical variety platform, 'Play Together', founded by the team of the popular online show 'Try Play Hair', will present a new spring project called 'Play Together x The Mills Fabrica: New Spring Opening'.

duel, and a finale Easter egg game, creating the most unforgettable Hong Kong-style festive memories!

The master of seal engraving, Lo Wing-kei, former owner of the well-known Tsuen Wan calligraphy shop 'Yau Yin Tang', which closed in 2024, will also be present to demonstrate his calligraphy skills. A special 'Woof Woof Chinese New Year Poon Choi Dinner' will be held for our furry friends, allowing you to enjoy the traditional Poon Choi with your beloved pets in style.

Two Themed Markets: Cleanse Your Mind, Body, and Soul to Welcome the Horse Year

According to traditional customs, the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month is for 'washing away dirt'. Besides cleaning our homes, we should also purify our mind, body, and soul to embrace the new year with good fortune. From January 30 to February 1, The Mills Fabrica collaborates with Freeture Concept and Little Sure Buddha to present the 'Little Sure Buddha's Defense of the Spiritual Village' market, gathering a variety of mind, body, and soul products and workshops, including tarot, astrology, Chinese metaphysics, aura photography, vegan desserts, aromatic products, essential oils, and sacred woods. All these elements will help you explore your energy and build a strong spiritual foundation.

Highlight attractions include 'Tree Shop', a book and product selection by singer Serrini; popular fortune-teller 'Internet Celebrity Mumu (@mumu_oona)' and Venus (@avenustoto) offering on-site tarot readings and fortune-telling; and 'Typing.jpg Loading...' teaching magical handwritten cards, infusing the new year with positive energy and inspiring new ideas.

Following this, from February 14 to 22, the 'Traffic Honey Chinese New Year Market' will make its grand debut, featuring a variety of carefully selected shops offering an array of festive goodies — from handmade desserts and handwritten spring couplets to creative Chinese New Year products. 'Treble Coffee', managed by celebrity Jim Yan and GREEN HOUSE, will warm visitors with rich coffee and offer coffee cups and limited-edition spring couplets. The popular dessert shop 'Mochi Bird' will present Dubai pistachio chocolate mochi for the new year;桂儀 (Abbierain)'s popular online shops 'Grandma's Variety Store' and 'Grandma's Coffee House' will offer a range of unique products; Hugh Cheung and TEEMTONEfai will create exclusive products; and from February 21 to 22, 'Mary', together with 'Love Adoption', 'Home for the Wanderers', and 'Love Dog Alliance', will host a Chinese New Year Dog Adoption Day to find warm homes for stray dogs, bringing happiness to the Horse Year.

On February 14 and 15, Ho Pui and Chan Hung-cheung will present a Valentine's Day limited live performance. During the performance, they will also write spring couplets with their fans to welcome the romantic new spring together!
