Celebrate Mid-Autumn in Dubai: Inspiring Fall Season Decor Ideas

When it is time to hang a lantern or enjoy a mooncake, you know the fall season is here which includes the special Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. This festival is celebrated in various countries, but it is a special one in the fall season in the UAE.

The Chinese Mid-Autumn festival is one of the highlights of the mid-autumn season. Essentially, this season is celebrated in the Eastern and Southeast Asian regions. Families enjoy Dubai in October in this season, particularly in the last quarter of the year. The mid-autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth month in the Chinese calendar. Some also call it the mid-autumn day in China. During this festival, individuals get together to enjoy the harvest, light up lanterns, and express admiration for what is thought to be the fullest moon of the year. This is why the mid-autumn festival is also known as a full-moon party.

In recent years, other countries have also started to celebrate this festival in the mid-Autumn season. Mid-Autumn Festival Dubai is perhaps the biggest celebration during the mid-autumn season outside of East and Southeast Asia.

Mid-autumn Festival 2024 was celebrated on September 17, which turned into a full moon party across Dubai. However, the mid-Autumn season is ongoing and families are enjoying it in several ways. One of the ways is to share beautiful flower bouquets and combo gifts to friends and loved ones. 

What is the Mid-Autumn Festival?

In the UAE, the mid-autumn festival is one of the major events celebrated mainly in Dubai. This festival has a bit of a history. It was during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) that the Mid-Autumn Festival became an official celebration. However, the exact date and year of this festival is still not clear. Due to its origins in China, it is also known as the Chinese Mid-Autumn festival.

Many people believe that this festival was first mentioned by Confucius in his the ‘Book of Rites’ around 2400 years ago.

As the story goes, it is thought to emerge from the event when emperors used to celebrate the yearly harvest by throwing a mega party and giving gifts to the moon. This is why moon flowers are common occurring at this festival nowadays.

Today, the Mid-Autumn festival is a grand family occasion. At this event, “people and the moon reunite to form a full circle,” according to an old saying.

People around the world, especially in autumn in Dubai and all over the UAE, celebrate this occasion with great zeal and fervor. 

Celebrations on the mid-autumn festival are like the Halloween or Thanksgiving Day parties in the United States.
