Two billion people from around the world celebrate Lunar New Year, which begins on January 29. Traditions may vary across cultures, but they all share the common elements of family, friends, food, and plenty of fun. When celebrating Lunar New Year, some people wear red clothing to signify a new start or to hope for a lucky year — feel free to wear something red, too!
