HOME
Together under one moon
The Moon Festival connects tradition with today. Ancient stories, dance, music and customs find new meaning when they are shared with a new generation.
At Moon Festival Antwerp, traditional Chinese culture meets contemporary influences such as hip hop, music and new forms of creativity. We honour the past while giving young people room to experience, renew and pass culture on in their own way.
Culture stays alive when every generation adds its own story.
