65hostel would like to wish everyone Happy Mid Autumn.
It is the time of year for kids to light up the lanterns and for adults to indulge in their favourite mooncakes. The Mid-Autumn Festival 2013 falls on 19 September, Thursday. If you are looking to take in the festivities, here are some Mid-Autumn activities taking place around Singapore for your enjoyment on the weekend before.
Mid-Autumn Festival @ The Gardens 2013
Gardens By The Bay celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Mid-Autumn Festival @ The Gardens 2013.
Taking place at the outdoor gardens and The Meadow from 13 to 22 September, handcrafted lantern displays
with themes such as Jurassic Park and World of Fairy Tales will found around the Gardens. Accompanying
stage performances and handicraft activities will bring the festivities to life while over at the Flower Dome, visitors can view a themed floral display that includes three dragonfly lanterns, pretty Chinese lanterns and
traditional paper cut-outs that tell the myths and legends of the festival. Operating hours to the two conservatories
are extended till 11.00 pm between 13 and 22 September and there is a 15% discount on admission fees to the
Conservatories during this period.
Chinatown Mid-Autumn Festival 2013 Light Up
With the theme “Kaleidoscope of Lanterns”, 20,000 multi coloured, decorative lanterns adorn the streets
of Chinatown this year. Enjoy the bustle of street vendors and the sounds of nightly stage shows while
walking around Chinatown’s historic lanes in the evening. If you are shopping for lanterns, head to the
junction of Smith Street and Trengganu Street where a large selection are on sale.
Chinese Garden Mid-Autumn Festival 2013 Presents: Jurassic Safari
Dinosaurs invade the Chinese Garden’s Lantern Festival this year. Large animatronic dinosaurs
(all with suspiciously similar growls and grunts) are scattered throughout the Garden. The organisers
must have blown their entire budget on the dinosaurs this year because there are only a couple of
oversized lanterns in the Garden. Personally, we preferred the usual kitsch, glowing lanterns to this
year’s growly dinosaurs, but there are plenty of kids who would be fascinated to see these creatures.
Stage shows at 8.00 pm nightly and admission charges apply.
Lantern Walks
What is the Mid Autumn Festival without kids playing with lanterns. Join in various lantern walks taking place around
Singapore over the weekend, including the Mass Lantern Walk at Chinatown starting from Banda Street
(15 September, 7.00 pm), the Esplanade’s Moonfest Lantern Walkabout(14 September, 7.45 pm) and the Lantern
Parade at Downtown East’s Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration (14 September, 7.00 pm).
