Evelyn, Chinese people usually spend New Year Eve together with their families. They worship their ancestors, prepare a table of delicious decious dishes and then enjoy it with their families. Meanwhile, many Chinese families watch CCTV Spring Festival Gala together. After the dinner, they make dumplings together. Of course, they set off firecrackers to celeberate the New Year's arrival. You can see that "family" is the main theme of New Year's Eve.
