The 2025 Lunar New Year Gala will mark the beginning of the Year of the Snake with a vibrant celebration of cultural heritage and artistic excellence. The event will feature an array of performances by professional artists and musicians from across Asia, including an opening act inspired by the legendary Chinese folk romance of the White Snake Spirit, blending dragon, sword, and spear dances. Guests will enjoy soulful vocal performances by a tenor and soprano, alongside duets that evoke the charm of their hometowns, and a Broadway Cabaret piece exploring themes of love and longing. Traditional Chinese music on instruments like the erhu and guzheng will harmonize with an eclectic mix of dances, from Chinese classical and modern K-pop to lively Zumba routines. Adding to the festivities, local community schoolchildren will charm the audience with their talents. Join us as we celebrate the Lunar New Year, embracing the festive atmosphere and welcoming the renewal and hope that spring brings.
