The Moon Festival, or Mid-Autumn Festival, is a cherished celebration of family, unity, and gratitude observed across East and Southeast Asia.
In September of each year, people gather to admire the full moon, enjoy mooncakes, and share traditions that symbolize reunion and good fortune.
Pacifica Square began Aurora’s Moon Festival in 2020, blending tradition with modern fun, for the community featuring cultural decorations and performances, and displays, and interactive activities like the Annual RamenRace.com, cosplay competitions with Vitamin D. Cosplay, and in 2024 a special outdoor laser tag arena from Chasers Laser Tag. With 50+ vendors and 1,500+ attendees, it’s a night of heritage, creativity, and community celebration.
