Chinese New Year: Choy Sun Doe Day
Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Chinatown
Choy Sun is the God of Wealth who blesses all with prosperity and an abundance of wealth, so it’s only fair to want to be on his good side! That’s why Chinatown will be introducing a celebration this Saturday. Choy Sun Doe Day will take place in Chinatown at Grant and Jackson streets featuring various live performances, a petting zoo, and one-hundred Choy Suns who will be passing out special red envelopes (to children only!) that will have candy and maybe a voucher for a toy or, of course, some money they can save in their piggy banks.
Giants FanFest

Entering its 26th year, the FanFest is a chance for some pre-season baseball fun with player Q & A sessions, free player autographs, the chance to walk on and even play catch on the field and much more!
