This year’s Chinese New Year starts on 29th January 2025. The first 2 days of celebrations are deemed public holidays in Singapore, though celebrations usually last up to 16 days. This year’s holidays fall on Wednesday, 29th January, and Thursday, 30th January.
Chuxi, happening on 28th January 2025, is the eve of CNY, and companies usually have half a day off so that families can prepare for their reunion dinners at night.
Here are some lucky colours based on your zodiac that you might want to keep in your wardrobe for a huat year:
