Recently, a rumor has circulated claiming that ‘there will be no Chinese New Year’s Eve (the 30th day of the 12th lunar month) this year, next year, the year after, or even the year after that,’ sparking public concern. In reality, this stems from the differences between the lunar and Gregorian calendars and the rules governing leap months in the lunar system. The traditional Chinese lunar calendar is based on the moon’s cycles, with a typical year lasting 354 or 355 days—about 11 days shorter than the solar year. To align the lunar calendar with the seasons, an extra (leap) month is added roughly every two to three years.Whether the 12th lunar month (Làyuè) includes a ’30th day’ depends on the precise timing of lunar phases. For example, in 2025, the 12th lunar month ends on the 29th, so Chinese New Year’s Eve falls on that day instead of the 30th. Similar situations may occur in 2026, 2027, and 2028, depending on astronomical calculations. However, this doesn’t mean the Spring Festival is canceled or unusual—in any case, New Year’s Eve remains the last day of the lunar year, and celebrations proceed as usual.Historically, years without a ’30th day’ in the 12th lunar month are quite common, occurring about 7 times in every 19-year cycle. Therefore, there’s no need for concern; people should simply follow the official lunar calendar for holiday planning. What truly matters is family reunion and cultural tradition, not the specific date.
近期有传言称‘今年、明年、后年、大后年都没有大年三十’，引发公众关注。实际上，这种说法源于农历与公历之间的差异以及农历闰月的设置规则。农历是根据月亮运行周期制定的，一年通常为354或355天，比公历年少约11天。为了协调农历与季节的关系，每隔2到3年会加入一个闰月。而农历腊月（即十二月）是否包含‘三十’，取决于当年月亮的朔望周期。例如，2025年农历腊月只有二十九天，因此没有‘大年三十’，除夕就是腊月二十九。类似情况在2026年、2027年和2028年也可能出现，具体需依据天文测算。但这并不意味着‘过年’被取消或异常——无论是否有‘三十’，除夕始终是农历年的最后一天，春节照常庆祝。历史上，没有大年三十的年份并不少见，大约每19年中会出现7次。因此，公众无需担忧，只需根据当年农历日历安排节日活动即可。重要的是团圆与传统，而非具体日期。
