The theme of this year's gala is "Year of the Snake, Keep Your Spirits Awake" ("巳巳如意，生生不息"), inviting global Chinese communities to join in the New Year's Eve celebration. The Chinese lunar calendar divides time into 60-year-long cycles and represents each year with 10 "Tiangan" characters and 12 "Dizhi" characters. For the Year of the Snake, which roughly fits the year 2025, the characters are "乙巳." The logo for the gala depicts two "巳" characters placed side by side.
