What is the first festival after the Spring Festival?

The first festival after the Spring Festival is the Lantern Festival, which is the 15th day of the first month every year.

Festival introduction:

Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month, also known as Lantern Festival, Shangyuan Festival, Xiao Yuan Festival, Yuanxi Festival or Lantern Festival, is the first important festival after the Spring Festival, and it is also one of the traditional festivals of Chinese and overseas Chinese in the Chinese character cultural circle. The first month is the first month of the lunar calendar. The ancients called the night "night", so the fifteenth day of the first full moon in a year was called the Lantern Festival.

In the ancient customs of China, Shangyuan Festival (Lantern Festival), Zhongyuan Festival (Orchid Festival) and Xiayuan Festival (Water Joint) are collectively called Sanyuan Festival. Lantern Festival began in the Qin Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ordered the fifteenth day of the first month to be designated as the Lantern Festival. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the sacrificial activities of "Taiyi God" were scheduled for the 15th day of the first month (Taiyi: the God in charge of everything in the universe). When Sima Qian created the taichu calendar Law, he had already identified the Lantern Festival as a major festival.
