CELEBRATE LUNAR NEW YEAR WITH GOOD LUCK AND GOOD FORTUNE AT BARONA VALLEY RANCH RESORT & CASINO

Barona Valley Ranch Resort & Casino will ring in the Year of the Boar during a two-week Lunar New Year celebration from Sunday, February 18 through Sunday, March 4 that will include ancient festivities, exotic food and good fortune. On February 18 at 6:30 p.m. guests will enjoy an exuberant performance of the Lion and Dragon dance, a time-honored tradition that celebrates Asia’s cultural identity with an elaborate dragon carried by animated dancers. Those in attendance will have the opportunity to win a share of $25,000 or a 2007 Mercedes-Benz SLK280 Roadster. In true Lunar tradition, Barona will also award free Hong Bao (lucky money) to casino guests on the first and last days of the event. Guests looking to indulge in authentic Asian fare can enjoy rare delicacies such as Sweet Bird Nest Soup and Thai Basil Maine Lobster. The Lunar New Year menu designed by Chef Wai Lau will be featured at the resort’s HoWan Noodle Shop and the newly-renovated Sage Café through March 4. Barona Valley Ranch Resort and Casino is located 30 minutes northeast of downtown San Diego at 1932 Wildcat Canyon Road in Lakeside.
