Sinan Full Moon Festival boosts Shanghai's night economy


The festival is divided into four zones. The first quarter moon zone hosts the Xiaohongshu Design Week's forest market, featuring 11 national brands with exclusive lifestyle items. The full moon zone offers creative drinks and an INS Paradise pop-up. The last quarter moon zone provides Mid-Autumn cultural products and food, and the New Moon Zone showcases intangible cultural heritage brands, blending tradition with modernity.
Stage performances are a highlight, featuring folk groups like choirs and pipa (China's traditional four-stringed lute) orchestras, along with Chinese and foreign musicians—including Chen Yinxi, China's first jazz artist at the Netherlands' North Sea Jazz Festival, and Indian tabla master Mandy — for a cross-genre audio feast. Two yoga sessions will also be held at Fuxing Park and other venues on Sept 30 and Oct 2 to enrich the holiday experience.
