Gary, to you, to Carol, to all your family and friends, to all the Chinese people around the globe... ???? / ????
This year, Chinese New Year - The Year of the Rooster - begins on Saturday January 28, 2017 and lasts until February 15th, 2018.
The new year, also known as the Spring Festival, is marked by the lunisolar Chinese calendar, so the date changes from year to year.
