The City of San Gabriel stands in solidarity with our community and our neighboring cities during this difficult time, as we continue to process the Monterey Park tragedy and other senseless acts of violence that happened this past week.  

We are keenly aware of these events’ impact on cities in the San Gabriel Valley and want to provide an opportunity for our communities to come together.  

As the Monterey Park tragedy has no connections to Lunar New Year Festival and the suspect is no longer a threat, we have decided to proceed with San Gabriel’s Lunar New Year Festival on Saturday, February 4. 

The safety of our community is of utmost importance to us. Additional law enforcement and security resources will be present throughout the event. 

We look forward to seeing everyone at our Lunar New Year event and welcome the arrival of the Year of the Rabbit together.
