2022 Mid-Autumn Festival Gala: A family feast for Chinese worldwide (CGTN)

The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, is celebrated by millions of people on the 15th day of the eighth month on the Chinese lunar calendar.

Shenzhou-14 taikonauts Chen Dong, Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe spent the first ever "Mid-Autumn Festival in Space" on China's space station. The story of Chang'e and Hou Yi is the most widely accepted. In Jiyang Lake Park at Zhangjiagang of Jiangsu Province, the main venue, Chinese stars including Li Yugang, Huang Ling and Na Ying staged various styles of songs. The gala was divided into three chapters, started with Kunqu Opera and Pingtan (a regional musical/oral performance art). For the Chinese, the moon is symbolized as being holy, pure and noble. Presented by China Media Group (CMG), the annual gala, also known as Qiuwan in Chinese, began at 8 p.m. The Mid-autumn festival is not just about family reunions. In ancient agrarian societies, people believed that the moon's operation was closely related to agricultural production and seasonal changes, so the Moon Festival became a critical ritual activity. An essential part of the festival celebration is moon worshipping. Folk customs feature a series of festive activities such as moon viewing with families, guessing lantern riddles, carrying brightly lit lanterns, performing dragon and lion dances and more. Since ancient times, there have been many legends about the moon in China. This year, the day falls on September 10.
