Happy Year of the Rooster, Chicago! Celebrating Chinese New Year is always one of the best things to do in the winter in Chicago. And though it’s a citywide fete, no one quite throws down like Chicago’s Chinatown, where upwards of 30,000 people come to take in the man-made magic. From traditional lion and dragon dances, marching bands, Chinese fireworks and more fill the streets of Archer Avenue to usher in a fresh year. This year was no exception—we popped down to Chinatown and caught some pretty epic moments from the parade.
