THE MID- FALL FESTIVAL

            InViet Nam, the Mid-Fall festival is also called the Children’s festival because it includes special activities for them. It is held every year on the 15th of the 8th lunar month when the moon is the brightest and roundest.

About one month before the festival, a lot of stalls are built along the streets selling moon cakes and displaying a variety of lanterns in different sizes and shapes. Lanterns are made of red cellophane-transparent papers and bamboo sticks or of plastic and thin steel wire. Most of them are traditionally lit up with candles though some have battery-operated lamps.

There are a lot of interesting activities in the Mid-Fall festival such as the children’s lantern procession and the Unicorn dance performance. Unicorn is an imaginary animal which looks like a lion. These activities are usually performed in the evening.

Children and their parents assemble in the garden, in the backyard, on the terrace of their house, or even on the pavement where they can have a good view of  the moon and enjoy the performances. They also celebrate the festival with moon cakes while watching the full moon rising. The festival ends up around midnight when the moon is at its highest position in the sky.
