We can't wait to welcome the members of the Clubs to our city once again with much new attractions and excitements developed in the past and coming years."

Lions Clubs International is the world's largest service organisation, with more than 1.4 million members in more than 48,000 clubs in 200 countries and geographic areas around the globe, where members benefit their communities through social and humanitarian services.
