Chinese Funeral Traditions

with Cultural Sensitivity

Preserving Heritage Through Meaningful Rituals

Chinese funerals are rich in tradition, symbolism, and reverence for ancestry. At Newhaven Funerals, we’re experienced in coordinating services that may include:

  • Ancestral altars and memorial offerings
  • Burning of incense and joss paper (spirit money)
  • Traditional dress codes and mourning practices
  • Ceremonial chanting, Taoist or Buddhist rituals
  • Funeral processions and eulogies
  • Post-funeral observances such as the 49-day mourning period

We work closely with families to ensure every element of the service reflects their wishes and cultural values.

Supporting Families Where

They Live and Grieve

We are proud to support Chinese-Australian families throughout South East Queensland, especially in cultural hubs such as:

  • Sunnybank and Eight Mile Plains – Brisbane’s heart of Chinese community life
  • Logan and Ipswich – growing multicultural regions where families seek culturally appropriate care
  • Southport and the Gold Coast – offering coastal services with traditional respect
  • Northern NSW – providing flexible service options for cross-border families
