This weekend, Saturday, February 28, and Sunday, March 1, 2026, is going to be all about celebrations. Here we are in March, just about twenty days away from the arrival of spring. But it’s especially time to celebrate the Chinese New Year on March 1. The festivities will be in full swing, especially in the 13th arrondissement, with plenty of parades and traditions. And with festivities come some disrupted traffic and parking. Let’s take a look!
