Learn more about the Mid-Autumn  Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival, or Moon Festival, is celebrated by many Asian cultures around the world and is considered the second-most important holiday in Asian culture after the Lunar New Year. The Mid-Autumn Festival celebrates the fall harvest and full moon, a time when families get together to enjoy each other’s company and the bountiful harvests after a year of labor and care. It is a time for children to stay up late to light lanterns and devour mountains of moon cakes.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is kept alive by the hard work of dedicated community members and elders who strive to educate future generations about Asian culture and heritage. The Santa Ana City Council issued a proclamation recognizing the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival Day of September 10.
