The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, is a celebrated traditional Chinese festival with a rich history and profound modern significance. Dating back over 3,000 years, this enchanting festival holds a special place in the hearts of Chinese people and has gained global attention for its cultural vibrancy.

Originating from ancient folklore and mythologies, the festival is deeply rooted in Chinese traditions and beliefs. According to one legend, the festival commemorates the moon goddess Chang’ e, who swallowed a pill of immortality and ascended to the moon. On this auspicious night, families gather to offer prayers and sacrifices to Chang’e, expressing their desires for good fortune, unity, and reunion.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is not only a time for celestial worship but also a celebration of harvest and abundance. Just as the moon shines brightly, symbolizing fulfillment and prosperity, families come together over sumptuous feasts and indulge in delectable mooncakes. These round delicacies, often filled with sweet lotus seed paste or various other savory fillings, represent unity and completeness, as families reunite and share in the joy of life.

In the modern era, the Mid-Autumn Festival has evolved, embracing new customs and innovations without losing its ancient charm. It has become a platform for artistic expression, with captivating cultural performances, vibrant parades, and mesmerizing firework displays. Creative reinterpretations of traditional elements, such as mooncake-making competitions and lantern design contests, add a contemporary flair while preserving the essence of this beloved festival.

“Mid-Autumn Festival is more than just a festive occasion for us at FPI. It is a time for reflection, gratitude, and strengthening our bonds as a close-knit family,” said Vera Shao, HR Manager at overseas department. “We believe that by embracing our cultural traditions, we can create a harmonious work environment that fosters innovation and excellence.”
