Chinese New Year Events - Lion Dance Parade 2024
Boston's huge Chinese New Year Parade in Chinatown features lion dances, drums, martial arts, and firecrackers, and when the weather cooperates, dragon dances. (The dragon dancers' somewhat fragile costumes don't hold up well in snow, rain, or strong wind, so Boston's January weather doesn't usually cooperate.)
Although Chinese New Year 2024 officially starts on February 10 to welcome the Year of the Dragon, the date when Boston's big Lion Parade through Chinatown (plus a couple of other related activities) takes place is on Sunday, February 18, 10 am - 3 pm.
The Lion Dance parade kicks off at the main stage in Philips Square (corner of Harrison Ave and Beach Street), continues on Essex Street, winds its way other nearby Chinatown streets, and then the dozen or so groups of performers spread out through the neighborhood to continue their performances for the rest of the afternoon. Depending on the weather (ie, not too much snow or ice on the streets), there may also be martial arts demonstrations and drumming.
An indoor event, Chinese New Year Cultural Village, takes place inside the China Trade Building (2 Boylston Street) and gives young children and their parents a place to warm up between 10am and 3pm. This event is sponsored by the Chinatown Main Street organization and includes special performances, traditional Chinese crafts, games, snacks, other family-friendly activities, and festive lanterns and balloons.
To join another fun Lunar New Year Celebration event in Chinatown on February 18, head over to the Pao Arts Center (99 Albany Street) where you can try your hand at art and enjoy enteractive workshops and performances from 11am - 3pm. This event is for all ages. A donation of $10 is appreciated.
Closest T station: Orange Line/Chinatown (or walk over from any Downtown Boston T station
Cost: Free

Boston Beanpot Hockey - TD Garden
The legendary Boston Beanpot rivalry pits teams from Boston's 4 major hockey schools against each other in a battle on the ice at TD Garden during the first two Monday nights in February. The winner gets ... (drumroll) ... the Beanpot trophy.
The tournament has taken place every season since 1952.
Here's how it works:
Week 1 features two games, as the teams pair off against each other for the semi-finals.
In Week 2, winners battle each other for the championship and #2 slot, while the losers play each other in a "consolation" game to see who will place 3rd and who will, ahem, "win" the last-place slot.
How do the schools stack up? Here are the number of Boston Beanpot Hockey Championships won by each team since the tournament began in 1952:
- Boston University Terriors - 31 Championships
- Boston College Eagles - 20 Championships
- Harvard University Crimson - 11 Championships
- Northeastern University Huskies - 8 Championships (ok, not impressive - but with 3 wins in the last few years, this is the team to watch!)
