Mooncake Festival 2020 Goes Online this Mid-Autumn – Pros, Cons, and Mooncakes Galore!

Life hasn’t been the same since COVID-19 descended upon us. Something that hasn’t changed, however, is that mooncakes remain a key part of Chinese Mid-autumn Festival celebrations in Singapore. The big difference this Mooncake Festival 2020 will be the lack of pop-up kiosks and mooncake fairs around town. Which basically means fewer taste tests too.

But when food is at stake, true-blue Singaporeans never fail to adapt with great fervour. We simply take our shopping — for the yummiest treats and the best deals — online. Competition is a-plenty, which is great for consumers like us. Delivery options add convenience, especially if you’re buying gifts for friends and family.

Online Mooncake Fairs in Singapore during Mooncake Festival 2020

Whether you plan to go with past-year favourites or get adventurous and try something new, online mooncake fairs are a good place to start. Advantages include one-stop shopping — check out various brands in one cart — and exclusive promotions on offer.
