The festival falls on August 15 of the lunar calendar in the period of crop reaping. On the day, the people in other places will come back for a family reunion to celebrate the festival by jointly appreciating the moon. Those who cannot come back will also express their feelings of missing family members through watching the bright moon. In the evening, an entire family will gather in the moonlight enjoying the mooncakes, field snails, shaddocks, taros and fresh fruits in great happiness. The activity is known as "appreciation of moon" or "worshiping the moon". In the evening of August 16, the activity of the previous evening will continue to constitute what is known as "pursuit of moon". Of course, foodstuffs prepared more or less for the festival depends on the richness of the families.
