Chinese New Year 2027 falls on Saturday 6 February

Lunar New Year's Day 2027 is Saturday 6 February, according to Hong Kong's official holiday list. Mainland factory closures will centre on that date, so orders for early spring need planning now.

Hong Kong's Labour Department lists Lunar New Year's Day 2027 as 6 February, with further statutory holidays on 8 and 9 February. The 9 February holiday is a substitute, because the second day of the new year falls on a Sunday.

Mainland China fixes its exact days off through an annual State Council notice. The 2026 notice was issued on 4 November 2025 and set a nine-day Spring Festival break from 15 to 23 February 2026, with make-up working days on Saturday 14 and Saturday 28 February.

The mainland's 2027 timetable will come in the next State Council notice. Until then, 6 February is the fixed point for planning.
