The Chingay Parade (simplified Chinese: 妆艺大游行; traditional Chinese: 妝藝大遊行; pinyin: Zhuāngyì Dàyóuxíng) is an annual street parade held in Penang, Malaysia and Singapore[1] as part of Chinese New Year festivities. The term Chingay itself originated in Southeast Asia, particularly in Penang, which is a phonetic equivalent of the Chinese words "妆艺", which means "a decorated miniature stage" or float.
