Celebrate 2026 Lunar New Year
YEAR OF THE HORSE
Experience the passion, vitality, and unstoppable energy of the Fire Horse during Lunar New Year with exquisite food, cultural celebrations, and incredible prizes.
Welcoming 2026: Lunar New Year
Tết Nguyên Đán—the “Feast of the First Morning”—is Vietnam’s most cherished celebration. For generations, Vietnamese families have gathered to honor ancestors, share festive meals, exchange lì xì (lucky money), and welcome the spring with hopes for prosperity and renewal. At NUE, we carry on this tradition, blending the vibrant spirit of Tết with our modern Vietnamese-American perspective.
2026 ushers in the Year of the Fire Horse—a rare zodiac combination appearing only once every 60 years. The Horse symbolizes vitality, perseverance, and swift success, while Fire ignites passion, dynamism, and bold transformation. Together, they create a year of unstoppable energy and forward momentum.
