Happy Lunar New Year 2025
Lunar New Year 2025 begins on January 29th and marks the beginning of the Year of the Snake in the Chinese zodiac, which repeats every 12 years.
The celebration will be full of vibrant traditions, including family reunions, feasts, fireworks, and cultural performances. Each year, the zodiac animal and element associated with the new year influence the themes and customs of the celebrations.
