Lunar New Year 2025

Tomorrow is the start of the new year under the Lunar calendar, an important celebration for many East and Southeast Asian cultures, including Chinese, Vietnamese and Korean communities.

The vibrant local celebrations remind us that people from around the world have chosen to call Waterloo home. Friends and families will gather tonight to share a meal, exchange lucky red pockets and set intentions for a prosperous year ahead.

As the Year of the Snake begins, we wish everyone a joyful and transformative year—shedding old habits and smoothly gliding into the new year.

Happy new year! Kung Hei Fat Choi! Gong Xi Fa Cai! Saehae bok mani badeuseyo! Chúc mừng năm mới!
