The San Francisco Chinese New Year Parade 2025 will celebrate the Year of the snake 🐍 and will step off at Second and Market Streets. It is a free event but we need to purchase tickets if we want to sit in the bleacher sections. The parade starts off at 2nd and Market Streets, goes around Union Square and ends at Kearny Street & Columbus Ave. The plan is to meet at Union Square early enough to find a goos spot to watch the parade. We can go to eat dinner at a Chinese restaurant afterwards
