元宵节的习俗在元宵节的白天里，会有很多表演节目，例如，舞龙灯、舞狮、采莲船、扭秧歌、踩高跷和打鼓。到了晚上除了华丽的灯笼，烟火也是另一道美丽的风景。很多家庭从春节开始就在放烟火，并且延续到了元宵节。一些本地政府还会组织烟火晚会。在晚上当新年的第一轮满月出来后，人们就会被天空中华丽的烟火和明月所陶醉。InthedaytimeoftheFestival,performancessuchasadragonlanterndance,aliondance,alandboatdance,ayanggedance,walkingonstiltsandbeatingdrumswhiledancingwillbestaged.Onthenight,exceptformagnificentlanterns,fireworksformabeautifulscene.MostfamiliessparesomefireworksfromtheSpringFestivalandletthemoffintheLanternFestival.Somelocalgovernmentswillevenorganizeafireworksparty.OnthenightwhenthefirstfullmoonenterstheNewYear,peoplebecomereallyintoxicatedbytheimposingfireworksandbrightmooninthesky.
