Celebrate Lunar New Year 2023 with New Disney Wallpapers

Celebrate Lunar New Year 2023 with New Disney Wallpapers blog header

The Lunar New Year is a special time for me as we celebrate Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese cultures and usher in new beginnings, good luck, health and prosperity for the coming year.   

Since Lunar New Year has started, we thought Disney Parks Blog readers would enjoy a few wallpapers and backgrounds to celebrate! These new Disney backgrounds are our first Lunar New Year wallpapers and they’re available now in various sizes for your iPhone, desktop, or device of choice to show your festive spirit.

As an Asian American and member of FAMASIA, a Business Employee Resource Group for Disney cast members, it’s important to me to be able to celebrate the culture that I’m so proud of and reconnect with all the amazing parts of my heritage. FAMASIA has a mission to inspire a community environment that celebrates the uniqueness and authentic representation of the Asian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander cultures, and we are delighted to further extend this representation throughout the company and community. In honor of our mission, let’s take a look at the celebratory wallpapers for the Lunar New Year!

Our first wallpaper for phones and watches features Mickey Mouse happily celebrating the Lunar New Year atop a bright red background for good fortune and joy!
