One of our special guests at our Haymarket Chamber of Commerce’s Moon Festival Celebration this year at the Furama Hotel on 10 September 2024 was Vivienne She.
After the event, Vivienne posted a story on her website about the celebration as follows:
This year, the Haymarket Chamber of Commerce (HCC) joined forces with its Chamber member Furama Hotel to host the Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration at the Furama Darling Harbour on the 10th of September.
Mid-Autumn Festival 中秋節, also known as the Moon Festival, is celebrated on the 15th of August of the lunar calendar and is regarded as the second most important celebration in Chinese tradition after the Spring Festival (Chinese New Year). In Chinese culture, we believe that the moon on this day is at its brightest and fullest. And the round shape of the moon symbolizes what we call 團圓, blessedness and unity.
