中秋節(jié)是我國的傳統(tǒng)佳節(jié)，與春節(jié)、端午、清明并稱為中國漢族的四大傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。
據(jù)史籍記載，古代帝王有春天祭日、秋天祭月的禮制，“中秋”一詞最早出現(xiàn)在《周禮》一書；直至唐朝初年，中秋節(jié)才成為固定的節(jié)日，《唐書·太宗記》記載有“八月十五中秋節(jié)”；中秋節(jié)的盛行則始于宋朝。節(jié)期為農(nóng)歷八月十五，是日恰逢三秋之半，故名“中秋節(jié)”，也叫“仲秋節(jié)”；又因這個節(jié)日在秋季、八月，故又稱“秋節(jié)”、“八月節(jié)”“八月會”；又有祈求團圓的信仰和相關(guān)節(jié)俗活動，故亦稱“團圓節(jié)”、“女兒節(jié)”。因中秋節(jié)的主要活動都是圍繞“月”進行的，所以又俗稱“月節(jié)”“月夕”“追月節(jié)”“玩月節(jié)”“拜月節(jié)”；在唐朝，中秋節(jié)還被稱為“端正月”。關(guān)于中秋節(jié)的起源，大致有三種：起源于古代對月的崇拜、月下歌舞覓偶的習(xí)俗、是古代秋報拜土地神的遺俗。
“中秋”一詞，最早見于《周禮》。根據(jù)我國古代歷法，農(nóng)歷八月十五日，在一年秋季的八月中旬，故稱“中秋”。一年有四季，每季又分孟、仲、季三部分，三秋中第二月叫仲秋，故中秋也稱為“仲秋”。到魏晉時，有“諭尚書鎮(zhèn)牛淆，中秋夕與左右微服泛江”的記載。直到唐朝初年，中秋節(jié)才成為固定的節(jié)日?！短茣ぬ谟洝酚涊d有“八月十五中秋節(jié)”。中秋節(jié)的盛行始于宋朝，至明清時，已與元旦齊名，成為我國的主要節(jié)日之一。這也是我國僅次于春節(jié)的第二大傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日。
根據(jù)我國的歷法，農(nóng)歷八月在秋季中間，為秋季的第二個月，稱為“仲秋”，而八月十五又在“仲秋”之中，所以稱“中秋”。中秋節(jié)有許多別稱：因節(jié)期在八月十五，所以稱“八月節(jié)”、“八月半”；因中秋節(jié)的主要活動都是圍繞“月”進行的，所以又俗稱“月節(jié)”“月夕”；中秋節(jié)月亮圓滿，象征團圓，因而又叫“團圓節(jié)”。在唐朝，中秋節(jié)還被稱為“端正月”。關(guān)于“團圓節(jié)”的記載最早見于明代?！段骱斡[志余》中說：“八月十五謂中秋，民間以月餅相送，取團圓之意”?！兜劬┚拔锫浴分幸舱f：“八月十五祭月，其餅必圓，分瓜必牙錯，瓣刻如蓮花?！溆袐D歸寧者，是日必返夫家，曰團圓節(jié)
隨著社會的不斷發(fā)展，古人賦予月亮許多傳說，從月中蟾蜍到玉兔搗藥，從吳剛伐桂到嫦娥奔月，豐富的想象力為月宮世界描繪了一幅幅斑駁陸離的勝景。自漢至唐，墨客騷人紛紛吟詠月亮及月中之事，八月十五月圓時成為抒發(fā)感情的極佳時刻。至北宋太宗年間，官家正式定八月十五日為中秋節(jié)，取意于三秋之正中，屆時萬民同慶。中秋之夜，明月當(dāng)空，清輝灑滿大地，人們把月圓當(dāng)作團圓的象征，把八月十五作為親人團聚的日子，因此，中秋節(jié)又被稱為“團圓節(jié)”。
秋節(jié)成為一年之中的重大節(jié)日，又與科舉考試有著極其微妙的關(guān)系，在我國封建社會，開科取士，一直是統(tǒng)治者十分重視的一件大事。而三年一次的秋闈大比，恰好安排在八月里舉行。勝景與激情結(jié)合在一起，人們便將應(yīng)試高中者，譽為月中折桂之人。每到中秋，必須進行隆重慶賀，成為全社會人民的重要風(fēng)俗，經(jīng)朝歷代，盛行不衰，中秋節(jié)逐漸成為我國漢族四大節(jié)日（春節(jié)、端午、中秋、清明）之一。
