The Lunar New Year celebrates the arrival of spring and the beginning of a new year on the lunisolar calendar. Although famously celebrated in China, the annual holiday is marked across Asia as a time to let go of the past and start afresh.
Beginning on Tuesday, 17 February, and continuing for about 15 days, the celebration will see 2026 welcome the Year of the Horse.
“The horse is a very important symbol in Chinese Culture,” says Asia Market’s Managing Director, Eva Pau. “It’s associated with success and power, energy and movement. It’s really positive.”
