Originating in the Zhou Dynasty (1045-221 BC), emperors would worship the harvest moon. Sacrifices were offered by kings to the Moon Goddess. In the Tang Dynasty (618-908AD). Rich merchants and officials would hold big parties in their court. They drank and admired the bright harvest moon. The custom of eating mooncakes during the festival began in the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), a dynasty ruled by the Mongols. Today, Asian culture continues this celebration with food, mooncakes, and family gatherings.

The Mayor of Millbrae Wayne Lee will give a welcome speech encouraging community building.

Master Chef Martin Yan, of Yan Can Cook, will perform his wonderful, worldwide known cooking show from 5 to 6 pm. The Idea Band will be performing songs in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin from 6 to 8 pm at the 400 block of Broadway.

Bring children for a fun night in the children's play area that will be set up at 300-400 block of Broadway. Many of the Michelin restaurants in Millbrae will be serving food on the sidewalks lining the festival perimeter.

In conjunction, the City of Millbrae rolls out Watch Program. Citizens of Millbrae will learn how a neighborhood watch program can protect their family and the neighborhood. Neighborhood watch programs are an effective method of preventing house break-ins and responding to natural disasters.
