We just had the romantic Chinese Valentine's Day this month, and players are just crazy about traditional Chinese festivals. So, we're going to bring up another Chinese festival for you to experience - the Lantern Festival!

The Lantern Festival, also known as the “Yuan Xiao” Festival, is celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar month of each year, and is the last day of the Chinese Spring Festival celebration. During the Lantern Festival, people go out at night to the temples and carry paper lanterns with fun riddles written on them. When there is a bright and full moon hanging in the sky, people eat YuanXiao (a type of glutinous rice ball) and enjoy the time of family reunion.

Now you're going to experience all of this in EO, from Aug. 19th - Aug. 23rd!
