This year, Qixi fall on 26 Aug 2009. In Singapore, there is no celebration which I know of, however, in China many couples throughout the country are set to celebrate in both modern and traditional ways.
In Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, a large-scale festival will be held at the Huaqing Pool. Residents have been invited to contribute love stories, with 77 pieces, representing the seventh day of the seventh month, being read aloud. 77 couples will participate in a collective wedding ceremony, Tang Dynasty style.
In Baoting Li and Miao Autonomous County in south China's Hainan Province, young people spray water to each other during the Double Seventh Festival
