Chinese New Year starts on Saturday, February 10th 2024 and ends on January 28, 2025. The Dragon is the 5th animal in the 12-year cycle, and this year the symbol is wood, so it is known as the year of the Wood Dragon.

“The Wood Dragon is the most creative and visionary of the dragons. They are optimistic, ambitious and adventurous. They like to explore new ideas and challenge themselves. They are also generous, compassionate and loyal to their friends.

Therefore, the Year of the Dragon in 2024 is expected to be a time of visionary leaders, innovators and problem solvers. 2024 is also predicted to be a great year to start new projects, explore new opportunities and create value for yourself and others.”
