Approximately 1.5 billion people across the globe are gearing up to celebrate one of the biggest holidays in East Asian cultures remotely, a far cry from the typical crowd-gathering festivities that usually accompany this day. Lunar New Year 2021 has arrived and the traditional forms of celebration are not as feasible with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
In Orange County, all three major Tet festivals have been canceled: the Little Saigon Westminster Tet Parade, the Little Saigon Tet Parade in Garden Grove, and the UVSA Tet Festival at the OC Fairgrounds. Organizers for all three events are hoping to bring back live festivities next year.
