The 15th Annual SD Lunar New Year Festival is being held this weekend in San Diego!
The big festival is taking place in City Heights at Officer Jeremy Henwood Memorial Park. It’s presented by the Little Saigon SD Foundation.
According to the Vietnamese calendar, the Year of the Snake begins on January 29, 2025.
As always, this annual Tết Festival is full of positivity and happiness. There’s plenty of diverse entertainment provided by community groups. There are karate demonstrations, dancers on the main stage, mariachis and the Fern Street Circus. There are several lion dance performances by both Southern Sea Dragon & Lion Dance (they posed for a group photo) and Lucky Lion Dance.
As Lunar New Year traditions demand, there are loads of backdrops providing photo opportunities, and tons of food!
I walked around the festival around noontime today and snapped these colorful photographs.
Today–Saturday–the free, family-friendly event continues into the night. Then there’s more fun on Sunday. For the hours and entertainment lineup and more, check out the event website here!
