Date Origin: January 1st of the Gregorian calendar as the New Year originated from the regulations of the ancient Roman Julian calendar.
International Adoption: After Pope Gregory XIII revised it into the currently widely used Gregorian calendar in 1582, January 1st as the New Year was adopted by the vast majority of countries worldwide.
In China: The term "元旦" (Yuándàn) has a long history in China, but its reference to January 1st of the Gregorian calendar was officially fixed after 1949, distinguishing it from the traditional Lunar New Year (Spring Festival).
Thus, the New Year's Day we celebrate today is an international holiday that not only carries Western calendrical traditions but also holds a redefined significance in modern Chinese history, symbolizing the beginning of a new cycle in the Gregorian calendar year.
New Year's Eve Dinner: Families or friends gather to enjoy a lavish dinner. Traditional dishes may include dumplings (symbolizing "the transition of the year"), hotpot (representing prosperity), and fish (meaning "surplus year after year"). Nowadays, many families also opt for Western cuisine or other specialty foods.
Watching New Year's Eve Galas: Similar to watching the Spring Festival Gala on Lunar New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve concerts hosted by various satellite TV stations (such as Hunan TV and Jiangsu TV) have become a fixed tradition. Families watch performances together while awaiting the midnight countdown.
Staying Up to Welcome the New Year: Many families stay up late until midnight, celebrating the arrival of the New Year by setting off electronic firecrackers (where fireworks are banned in cities),A toast to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.
New Year's Eve Galas and Countdown Events: Major cities across the country host grand New Year's Eve parties and large-scale countdown gatherings with thousands of participants. Celebrating the arrival of the New Year amidst cheers and excitement with friends has become one of the most popular ways for young people to welcome the year ahead.
We sincerely wish you and your family:
A Happy New Year, prosperous business, and a joyful family!
We look forward to continuing to work hand in hand with you in 2026 to create new brilliance in global trade!
