Lunar New Year countdown
No countdown running. Create yours below.
The Lunar New Year is the first day of the first month of the Chinese lunisolar calendar, between January 21 and February 20. The countdown above shows the time left until midnight that day, at your local time.
It opens the Spring Festival in China and is celebrated in many countries of Asia and by diasporas around the world. The table gives the official dates of the next years.

Frequently asked questions
Does the countdown follow my local time?
Yes: it reaches zero at midnight, in your device’s time. Two people in different time zones therefore do not see the same time left.
Can I create a countdown for another date?
Yes: the countdown page lets you choose any date and time, with a title and a link to share.
