Celebrate the Year of the Dragon with cultural activities and performances! Watch a traditional lion and dragon dance, meet radio and TV stars and take a historic walk through the Mission District.

By the way, if you want to maximize your Lunar New Year celebrations on Sunday, consider checking out the Alhambra Lunar New Year Festival during the day, and then shifting to the Lunar Lantern Festival during the evening. LAist will be doing a live broadcast from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Alhambra fest. Come see us!
