Eureka’s Hmong New Year Celebration Brings Fashion, Dance and Food to Alice Birney School

EUREKA — November 7, 2026. Humboldt County families are invited to a Hmong New Year celebration Saturday, November 7, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Alice Birney Elementary School, 717 South Avenue.

A day of culture and community

The event announcement lists cultural shows, a Hmong fashion presentation, dance performances, games and entertainment. More than 18 food vendors are advertised, giving visitors a chance to experience a variety of dishes while connecting with local families and performers.

What the celebration represents

Hmong New Year observances can include traditional clothing, music, community gatherings and the sharing of cultural history across generations. A local school celebration provides a way for children and adults from different backgrounds to experience and learn about these traditions directly, rather than only through classroom descriptions.

Visitor information

The organizers say everyone is welcome. The published event notice does not specify an admission fee, so guests should not assume that every food purchase or activity is free. Because school grounds and parking may have special entry arrangements, families should follow signs and event organizers’ instructions. The schedule is confirmed in advance but actual attendance and performances will only be known afterward.
