Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China, which is usually called "July 30th" or "Ghost Festival". The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on July 15th of the lunar calendar every year, so the solar calendar time is not fixed. In some parts of southern China, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival on July 14. For example, people in Guangxi usually celebrate on July 14 in advance, and there are some differences in customs in many places.
Usually, most people think that it is midnight on July 14 of the lunar calendar, and it does not belong to Ghost Festival until July 15. Some people say that July 14 is Ghost Festival and July 15 is Mid-Autumn Festival.
