Persian New Year events & parties
Nowruz events
Nowruz — “new day” — is the Persian New Year, celebrated at the exact moment of the spring equinox. In 2027 the new year arrives on March 20, 2027 (Pacific time).
Families set the haft-sin table, visit relatives and celebrate for two weeks. In the diaspora, Nowruz also means some of the biggest Persian concerts, galas and parties of the year — they sell out early.
