The main one that is really celebrated: chinese new year. it has already past, on january 23rd. also the lantern festival, which is the last day, or night of new year celebrations (the 14th night). this would be February 6th. next comes the dragon boat festival, also called duan wu jie. it's on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which is june 23rd this year. the last is the moon festival, also known as mid-autumn festival. this is on the fifteenth day of the 8th lunar month. it should be on sept. 30th this year. these are the main holidays that china celebrates now

WE only celebrate the Chinese New Year. The rest aren't that important.
