Dates for Chinese New Year, Lantern Festival and Chinese Zodiac
Since the Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year is based on the Chinese calendar which is partly based on lunar cycles, this ensures that the date is not static on western calendars. Since it takes place on the day of the second new moon after the winter solstice (with some unusual exceptions), it can vary from the end of January to mid February. Unless you have a Chinese calendar or moon cycle chart handy, to find the date, just look at our list below. Our list contains Chinese New Year dates from 2010 until 2023 and their corresponding Chinese Zodiac signs.
