Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival on September 10, 2022

Chinese Moon Festival is on September 10, 2022, Saturday. Chinese Moon Festival is on the 15th moon day of the 8th Chinese lunar month based on the Chinese Lunar Calendar. The new moon day is the first day of a Chinese Lunar Month. Because the first day of the 8th lunar month is August 27, 2022 therefore, the Chinese Moon Festival is on September 10, 2022, in China's time zone.

Chinese Moon Festival is also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival. This is because the lunar 8th month is in the middle of the Chinese autumn season. The lunar 15th date is in the middle of the month. However, the 15th lunar day is not always the same as the full moon day of the 8th lunar month. Luckily, September 10, 2022, is a full moon day in China's time zone.

Chinese enjoy tasting different moon cakes during the Chinese Moon Festival. There are more than 1.3 billion Chinese in the world today. That means more than 1.3 billion moon cakes will be eaten during the week of the Moon Festival each year. A regular-size traditional moon cake is more expensive than a hamburger. Moon cake is a huge market in autumn.
