Chinese New Year Today
2022 is the Year of the Tiger, which is known to be king of all beasts in China and comes third in the Chinese zodiac. Chinese New Year heralds weeks of celebrations being planned by several families beginning with Chinese New Year’s Eve and ending with the Lantern Festival.
Chinese New Year’s Eve traditions offer tributes to ancestors, enjoy a reunion dinner, watch the New Year’s Eve Gala give red envelopes of money to children for luck, and celebrate into the early hours.
