2025 COLORADO HMONG NEW YEAR
November 29-30, 2026
Check out last years Colorado Hmong New Year!
Last year Colorado Hmong New Year Celebration marked a historic milestone — 50 years of Hmong legacy in the United States — honoring the strength, resilience, and enduring spirit of the Hmong people.
Hailing from the mountainous regions of Southeast Asia, the Hmong played a vital role during the Vietnam War as Special Guerrilla Units (SGUs) who fought alongside the U.S. CIA in the Secret War in Laos, while many Hmong women served courageously as nurses and caretakers, tending to the wounded and supporting their families amidst great hardship.
Following the war, countless Hmong families faced political persecution and fled their homeland in search of safety. Many resettled around the world — with a large population finding a new home in the United States — bringing with them a rich cultural heritage rooted in family, tradition, and perseverance.
