Exclusive Featured : Moonlight Delights Fiesta @SCCC

           

The Mid-Autumn festival, also known as the Mooncake festival is widely celebrated in many Asia countries and it's a traditional celebration in Chinese culture. On the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, families and friends gather around to enjoy delicious mooncakes with tea and admire the moon in its full glory!

Growing up in an Asian family, I value traditional cultures, customs, celebrations... and till this day, the mooncake festive is still my favourite Chinese festival of all time. It brings back many nostalgia moments and fond memories of my childhood.

We Love Festive Shopping! ;)

My kids love festive time! I told them about the mythical story of Chang-Er (Moon Goddess), HouYi, the Jade Rabbit and how mooncake festival is celebrated. 

 

I brought my kids along to shop for festive goodies that day and we bought some mooncakes, pastries, pomelo and a few cute lanterns.

I personally love the classic cellophane paper lanterns, the goldfish/carp designs are my favourite! My mom used to buy these lanterns for every mooncake festival. My family prefer traditional double salted eggs lotus mooncakes. Yummy! 😋

The round shaped mooncake symbolizes completeness, togetherness, good fortune and family reunion.

Moonlight Delights Fiesta :

Last weekend, I brought my kids to the Moonlight Delights fiesta at Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) located at Shenton way, near Tanjong Pagar MRT.

            

It was a heart-warming and family friendly event for all ages. The view at the roof garden is so beautiful and aesthetic! We took some photos with the giant mooncakes and neon lights display. We brought along our own lanterns and bubbles. I felt like a wild child, running around, having so much fun with my kids! 😄

The Evening Entertainment...

An outstanding hola hoop performance by circus artist street performer Bryan Wong from Brylights. The humorous and jovial guy kept the audience entertained with his skilful manoeuvre and stunts! Awesome! The crowds were cheering with excitement.

                     

There were game booths, stage performance, guessing the riddles, mooncake stalls and lantern walk.

Exploring The Milky Way...

My favourite part of the event is the star gazing. How romantic! 😊🤩 Let's count the stars...and to the moon & back! 

I'm into astronomy and I've always love star gazing and solar system exploration. The kids were so excited to watch the stars and moon with the telescope equipment provided. What an astonishing experience!

 

Thankfully, it didn't rain! We are blessed with a cooling and breezy weather that evening.

                  

                  

The queue was overwhelming, but the crowd control was efficient and it's worth the wait!😎

 

The event was well-organised, with amazing activities and entertainments for everyone. We had an enjoyable evening and I look forward to more fun family events in the near future!

 

A Demure Treat!

  

A lovely festive gift from one of my music students at the event. Very cutesy, very tasty and very demure! 😘 I love it! Thanks to JW for the private gathering and extended invitation.

 

The Mooncake Festive is a wonderful time for family bonding, outdoor activities and fun celebrations! Have a great time!

Sending my heartfelt wishes for a joyful Mooncake Festival full of bliss, happiness and sweet reunions! Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to all who celebrate! :)
