NYC Mid-Autumn Fest 2026
WEATHER UPDATE ☔️💨
We know there’s been a lot of chatter about a possible Nor’easter this weekend, so we reached out to a meteorologist friend for a detailed forecast specifically for our location on Saturday.
The good news: we’re expecting less than an inch of rain throughout the day, with no flooding concerns at our location. It will be breezy to windy, with north winds and possible gusts around 30–35 mph.
We’re preparing accordingly! Our outdoor area sits between two concrete buildings, which already provides some protection. We’ll also be adding a wind barrier along the north-facing fence, positioning our 20-foot U-Haul as an additional buffer, and setting up tents and umbrellas to keep everyone covered from the rain.
NYC Mid-Autumn Fest is rain or shine, and the celebration is ON! 🥮🏮✨

ALL TICKET SALES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
NYC Mid-Autumn Fest 2026 is a day-long (12PM-12AM!) celebration of the Harvest Moon holiday, one of the biggest holidays for Asian-American families, held at Planet X Studios, a cutting-edge production studio in Williamsburg. Every year, the festival showcases Asian-American-made creativity while raising money to help our community, because it is possible to do good and have a good time at the same time.
This year, we are raising money for Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF), a nonprofit that has been at the forefront of the fight for justice and civil rights for Asian Americans and all communities. Your support helps us make the festival a reality, including paying our talented performers and artists fairly, while nourishing those who need it most.
