The inaugural Mid-Autumn Festival will take place on Saturday, October 1, 2022, from 4 to 9 p.m. at Rosita Park. This free community event highlights Asian cultures and celebrates Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities. Following the City of Santa Ana’s official apology for the burning of its Chinatown in 1906, this event commemorates an act of atonement.

Food will be available for purchase. Feel free to bring a lawn chair and/or blanket.
