The Chinese New Year is upon us and the Year of the Horse will have its traditional New Year parade in Chinatown on Sunday, February 2. The parade begins at 2 pm at 6th and I St NW and ends at 7th and H St NW with the Washington Chinese Youth Club performing the Lion Dance. The festival runs from 4 pm to 6 pm. The Chinese Cultural Center at 616 H Street NW will also be open and running a variety of events from Noon to 5 pm.

The Super Bowl takes place the same day and the Washington Post has a fun piece about the Penn Quarter Sports Tavern hosting both Seahawks and Broncos fans, one floor for each city’s fans. There’s no shortage of Penn Quarter establishments to watch the game with specials mentioned here including Penn Social, Hill Country, City Tap House, and Penn Quarter Sports Tavern. Kick off is at 6:30 pm.
