Lunar New Year 2027 Events in Oklahoma

Lunar New Year's Day falls on Saturday, February 6, 2027, kicking off the Year of the Goat. Lunar New Year's Eve is the night before, and celebrations often stretch for about two weeks, all the way to the Lantern Festival. Event listings for Oklahoma this season are being verified and will be added as organizers confirm them.

Here is what these celebrations are known for, so you know what to look forward to. Lion dances bring the boom of drums and the crash of cymbals to the street. Red lanterns glow over the crowd, and the smell of street food drifts through the air. Families often pass along hóngbāo (red envelopes), which hold lucky money for good fortune.

Keep this page handy and check back as Oklahoma listings arrive. Oklahoma City is the state's listed city for planning, so start there, pick a day, and get ready to welcome the Goat. Gōngxǐ fācái (wishing you prosperity) is a greeting you may hear, especially at Chinese New Year events.
