Mid-Autumn Festival: Full Moon of Faifo
Hoi An Memories Land | 18–25 September 2026

Check in at “Full Moon of Faifo” and meet beloved characters from timeless tales

The festivities begin at the “Full Moon of Faifo” installation and continue along the path leading to the Thương Điếm area, where rows of colorful lanterns stretch into the distance, glowing beneath the night sky and welcoming visitors into a lively Mid-Autumn setting.

The festive drums echo through the night as crowds gather and lanterns light up the streets one after another. The scene evokes traditional Mid-Autumn celebrations, when joy filled the air with laughter, lantern lights and precious moments of togetherness. In this enchanting setting, Chị Hằng, Chú Cuội and other beloved characters of the season make their appearance. It is also a wonderful check-in spot for families to capture beautiful memories of this year’s full-moon season.

Enjoy a series of minishows recreating the vibrant Mid-Autumn atmosphere of old Faifo

From 18–25 September, the Mid-Autumn minishow series brings together lion dances, music performances and traditional folk arts, adding vibrant colors to the festivities at Hoi An Memories Land. Through each performance, familiar images of traditional Mid-Autumn Festival are brought to life in a lively and accessible way, inviting visitors and families to enjoy and immerse themselves in the celebration.

Mid-Autumn Workshops: Connecting with Traditional Cultural Values

Beyond lantern processions and festive treats, Trung Thu Thương Cảng offers hands-on experiences where visitors can create familiar symbols of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Gather around and make your own mooncake or a little lantern together. These simple, hands-on activities bring back cherished memories and recreate the warmth of families preparing for a joyful Mid-Autumn night in days gone by.

Lantern Procession, Festive Feast & Lantern Wishes for Peace

At Trung Thu Thương Cảng, visitors are invited not only to watch, but also to become part of the familiar traditions of Mid-Autumn Festival. Children follow the Thiên Cẩu in a joyful procession, carrying star-shaped lanterns as they make their way through the streets before joining the festive feast at the trading port. Scenes that live on in the memories of generations are brought back to life amid the 400-year cultural setting of Hoi An Memories Land.

After the lantern procession and festive feast, visitors make their way to Hồ Liên Hoa to write down their wishes and release floating lanterns onto the water. As each wish gently drifts away, blending with the moonlight reflected on the lake, the evening comes to a peaceful close — a beautiful moment to cherish with family and loved ones.
