Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration: Mooncake Tasting & Lantern Making Workshop
About this Event
Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋节), a traditional Chinese festival that honours the full moon, family reunion, and the beauty of the autumn season. Rooted in centuries of stories and symbolism, it is a time for gathering, sharing, and reflecting under the brightest moon of the year.
Mooncakes are traditionally shared as symbols of unity and togetherness, while tea is enjoyed in quiet appreciation. Lanterns also play an important role in the festival—glowing decorations that light up homes and streets, symbolising hope, joy, and reunion as people come together to admire the full moon. You will have the chance to create and take home your own lantern.

🌕 Festival Stories: Discover the legends and cultural meanings behind the Mid-Autumn Festival, from moon mythology to themes of reunion and gratitude
