Background

Vietnam’s Mid-Autumn Festival (Tết Trung Thu) is a major folk celebration of reunion and children—lantern processions, lion dance and mooncakes.

Impact on travellers

Not always a nationwide day off. Hanoi Old Quarter, Hoi An and central HCMC feel festive; family events and night markets get busier.

Extra notes

Date follows the 15th of the 8th lunar month; crowds grow further when it pairs with Hoi An lantern nights.
