Whether you call it the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lantern Festival, Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival, this day is celebrated across most of East Asia and by East Asians around the world. You can find a Mooncake Festival in Sydney, Lantern Festival in Singapore, Mid-Autumn Moon Family Festival in New York, Mid-Autumn Festival in London and many more. The revered date is the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar, which translated to a late September or early October date in the Gregorian calendar.
