Hmong New Year

The Hmong New Year is a culturally significant celebration marking the end of the old year and the start of a new one, typically held in December or January. It fosters community, cultural pride, and familial bonds through traditional music, dancing, attire, and games. The event often includes ceremonies to honor ancestors, rites of renewal, and exhibitions of Hmong crafts and cuisine. Celebrated globally by the Hmong diaspora, it serves as both a cultural preservation and social gathering, emphasizing unity, heritage, and hope for the year ahead.
