Lunar New Year Wishes 2023

The Lunar New Year (or Chinese New Year) is celebrated across many countries, each with its own traditions. It signifies the official transition between zodiac signs. 2022 has seen the Year of the Tiger, whereas 2023 will welcome the Year of the Rabbit. The 15-day long Chinese New Year celebration for 2023 will begin on Sunday, 22 January. The Year of the Rabbit will last until Friday, 9 February.

It is common to send well-wishes for the start of the Lunar New Year to friends and family, which tend to be respectful and more formal than other New Year Wishes. Traditions include festive lanterns, hanging colourful banners and bunting, and giving a red envelope to those you care to wish luck to, often containing money.
