2019 Cambridge Chinese Mid-autumn Festival

Mid-autumn festival is a traditional Chinese Festival.The festival is held on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar with full moon at night. The festival was a time to enjoy the successful reaping of rice and wheat with food offerings made in honour of the moon.
