Evening is often on the 29th or 30th of the twelfth lunar month, so it is also called New Year's Eve. On New Year's Eve, there have been customs such as ancestor worship, celebrating the 30th anniversary, having a reunion dinner, posting New Year greetings and hanging lanterns since ancient times, which have been handed down for a long time. Influenced by Chinese culture, New Year's Eve is also a traditional festival for overseas Chinese in countries with Chinese cultural circles and around the world.

There is also the custom of avoiding breaking utensils on New Year's Eve. People believe that if plates and cups are broken on this day, it will mean "bad luck" in the new year. Sometimes on this day, the cups and plates are accidentally broken, and the elders will quickly wrap them in red paper and recite auspicious words such as "Peace through the years" to remedy them.
