About the Event
About
The mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Mooncake Festival, is one of the most cherished traditional holidays in Chinese culture. Celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, it’s a time for family reunions, moon gazing, and indulging in mooncakes – these round pastries, often filled with lotus seed paste or red bean paste and sometimes containing salted egg yolks, symbolize unity and completeness.
The Mooncake Festival is steeped in legends and myths, beautiful performances and lively ambiences to better encapsulate the themes of gratitude, harmony, and the poignant beauty of fleeting moments.
Come and explore the event, enjoy the amazing lineup of ?performances and dress up in your most mystical and oriental attire while savouring the unique selection of traditional cuisines.
