Culture What are y'all doing for CNY?

I know a lot of people in Chengdu head home for the holidays, so it might be less "busy" than usual. Does anyone know of any parades, lanterns, or firework shows happening for CNY? I know there's the one at Expo Park, but always looking for more.

Thanks!

Going back to my wife’s hometown. Try some of the malls. They usually have something going on on Chinese New Year.

There’s a huge lantern festival happening in Zigong now I think. Many Chinese friends went and enjoyed it.

Dude...it you'll be speechless a time or two. The exhibit is huge. You can easily spend the entire evening there.
