Cheers to 2021

Cheers to 2021! And, of course, the new decade that comes with it. According to the Chinese zodiac, 2021 is the Year of the Ox.

With many events cancelled or delayed in 2020, we're crossing our fingers that we can make up for lost time and return to some of the events that we love. Hopefully, that means more sporting events, music festivals, religious celebrations, and more.

Please note that some of the events listed may get moved or postponed due to the COVID-19 situation, so please check online before you run any SMS campaigns around them.
