Happy Lunar New Year

In this episode we explore the traditions and customs of the Lunar New Year (also known as the Spring Festival 春節), a captivating festival rooted in ancient lunar cycles and celebrated across multiple East Asian countries. 

Listen in as we talk to some friends on the Taiwan stand at the Holiday World Show held recently at the RDS, Dublin about the Year of the Snake, 2025. We hear about everything from parades and fireworks, to favorite foods and the exchange of lucky red envelopes (紅包) and how communities in Taiwan and beyond ring in the Lunar New Year!

Date of Recording: January 26th, 2025.
