This short video introduces the Chinese Spring Festival, an event that is celebrated by more than 1.6 million Chinese and Southeast Asians, as well as other Asians living around the world.

In 2022, the Chinese Spring Festival falls on the first 3 days of February, while the last day of January is considered “Spring Festivals Eve”. Due to the fact that it is based on the lunar calendar, the date may thus differ every year.

Watch this video to learn the background behind this popular and widely-celebrated festival.
