Dr. C.K. Liu and Boston Mayor Thomas Meninio addressed attendees of the 2004 Boston Chinatown Festival and August Moon Festival on August 8, 2004 during the opening ceremony. The annual festival is an important celebration of Boston's rich Chinese cultural heritage and a wonderful time for members from across the community to share in a day of festivities. This year more than 20,000 people attended the event.

Mayor Menino and Dr. Liu each congratulated the organizers of the event for its success and highlighted its importance and many contributions by Boston's Chinese community to the City of Boston. City Councilman James Kelly whose district includes Chinatown also congratulated the participants. Festival events included, in part, a lion dance, Chinese kung fu, drums, folk songs, ballet, a live band, and opera.
