FAQ
Is Chinese New Year on the same Gregorian date every year?
No. Chinese New Year follows the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, so its Gregorian date usually changes each year.
Why does the Chinese New Year date change?
It falls on the first day of the first month in the Chinese lunar calendar. Because the lunar calendar and Gregorian calendar do not align exactly, the Gregorian date changes.
Are Chinese New Year and Lunar New Year the same thing?
Chinese New Year is the Chinese traditional lunar new year. Lunar New Year can also refer more broadly to new-year traditions in several Asian cultures.
When does the Chinese zodiac year begin?
In this calendar tool, the zodiac year follows the Chinese lunar new year, starting on Chinese New Year rather than January 1.
