Chinese New Year decorations at the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens

Do you know what year it is? Yes, it’s 2015, but it’s also the Year of the Sheep…or Goat, depending on who you ask.

I’m talking about Chinese New Year, and the celebrations are right around the corner. Here’s where to celebrate Chinese New Year 2015.

Chinese New Year, also known as Lunar New Year, is a big deal at Peninsula Hotels, which is a Chinese brand.

All of its properties, including Beverly Hills, Chicago, and New York, are celebrating with traditional decorations, performances, and special menus for the holiday.

Richmond, British Columbia, has the largest concentration of Chinese residents in Canada, and the New Year festivities run for 15 days.

You’ll find decked-out Asian shopping centers, traditional dance shows, and a huge gathering at the International Buddhist Temple.

Yes, Las Vegas always has to celebrate in a big way.

The Bellagio’s Conservatory and Gardens now has a 14-foot display, The Venetian has a Chinese New Year art installation, while festivals and cultural performances will take place at The LINQ Promenade.
