ABOUT THE MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL
The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, is a significant cultural event traditionally celebrated by Chinese and other Asian communities, symbolizing the full moon harvest, unity, harmony, and the gathering of family and friends. National Music Centre (NMC)’s three-day festival will capture the spirit of this cherished tradition, bringing a national perspective to a popular annual event among local Chinese and Asian communities, while bridging traditional Chinese culture with mainstream Canadian culture.
ABOUT MID-AUTUMN STAR
To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, NMC is presenting a special Mid-Autumn Star event showcasing Alberta's vocal talent. Emerging artists were encouraged to submit their music to be considered for the singing contest. The top 10 submissions will be invited to practice and perform for festival attendees during the day on Saturday, September 21 and Sunday, September 22. Then, they’ll come back to perform live in the evening of September 22, where each artist will receive live feedback onstage from a panel of established musicians. Here, the top three performers, as determined by our jury, will be awarded trophies, with a special distinction for the first-place winner — a full day recording session in NMC’s world class recording studios.
Mid-Autumn Star submissions are now closed. Join us on September 22 to cheer on the finalists!
