1. Qingming Festival Background and Macau Tomb-Sweeping Culture
Qingming Festival (Cantonese: cing¹ ming⁴ zit³; English: Ching Ming / Qingming Festival / Tomb-Sweeping Day) is a traditional Chinese festival for honouring ancestors, originating from the Cold Food Festival of the Zhou dynasty and merged with the Shangsi Festival. Since 2008, it has been designated as a public holiday in the People's Republic of China; the Macau Special Administrative Region has retained Qingming Festival as a public holiday since the handover (Law No. 60/2000 and annual administrative regulations).
Macau Qingming Traditions:
- Three Ancestor Rituals: Tomb-sweeping (clearing weeds from graves), burning incense and offering flowers, and burning paper money
- Hakka/Fujian/Chao Shan Descendants: Hakka and Min-Chao families in Macau make ai ban (artemisia rice cakes) and run bing (spring rolls)
- Cantonese Tradition: After ancestor worship, families gather for a "Filial Piety Meal" or "Mountain Rice" to honour ancestors and bring the family together
- Daoist and Confucian Spirit of Honouring Ancestors: Emphasises "worship as if present", with elders seated at the head of the table
- Public Holiday Police and Traffic Controls: DSAT (Macau Transport Bureau) and the Public Security Police Force issue joint announcements annually, with 2026 implementing measures from 3rd April to 7th April
