Join us as we explore Stefanie Sun's charming volunteering at her son's school, the vibrant celebrations in Da Nang, and yummy seasonal delights of the Mid-Autumn Festival!

The Mid-Autumn Festival is not just about mooncakes; it's a time for familial bonding, celebration, and sharing laughter under the glowing moon. In Singapore, beloved singer Stefanie Sun was recently spotted volunteering at her son’s school during this festive occasion. Being the friendly and gracious celebrity she is, Stefanie warmly welcomed photo requests from fellow parents, undoubtedly sprinkling her star power on the festivities. Who knew a school event could turn into an afternoon of star-gazing and joy!

Meanwhile, in Vietnam's Da Nang, the vivid hues of moonlit festivities are breathing life into the streets. As families gather to admire dazzling lion dances and marvel at intricately designed lanterns, the legend of Cuoi—a man who clings to a magical banyan tree floating to the moon—enriches the atmosphere with an enchanting folklore. This captivating tale paired with vibrant displays makes the Mid-Autumn celebration in Da Nang a spectacle that visitors can't help but adore.

As shoppers prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the market streets are abuzz with the hustle and bustle of eager customers diving into the seasonal delights. Selling like hotcakes this year are Qiuyue pears, soft-seeded pomegranates, juicy apples, and even durians! Gift boxes shaped like lanterns containing goodies such as Xinjiang plums and plum-leaf crabs are also a hit with festival-goers looking to impress family and friends. With so many tempting offers available, it’s clear that both parents and children alike are gearing up for a grand celebration.

And as the festival approaches, one can't help but feel the magic in the air. Did you know that the Mid-Autumn Festival is sometimes referred to as the Moon Festival, marking the end of the harvest season? It's a time when families reunite, much like how mooncakes, with their round shape, symbolize completeness and harmony.

So, whether you're in Singapore, enjoying a star-studded afternoon volunteer event, or in Vietnam connected by age-old tales under glowing lanterns, the spirit of the Mid-Autumn Festival shines bright. May your festivities be filled with good tidings, great company, and scrumptious mooncakes!
