Under the influence of Chinese culture, other countries, especially some countries in East Asia and Southeast Asia, also celebrate this festival in different ways.
韓國：韓國的中秋節也被稱為「秋夕節」，是人們慶祝豐收的一個節日，就像西方的感恩節。秋夕節通常會有3天的假期；節日期間，成千上萬的人會回鄉祭祖、賞月、吃松糕。這種松糕是圓形的，所以和月餅一樣，也有著團團圓圓的意思。
South Korea：The Mid-Autumn Festival in South Korea is also called 「Chuseok」, which is a festival for people to celebrate harvest, just like the Thanksgiving Day in the Western countries. There will be a three-day holiday in Chuseok，during the festival, thousands of people will return to their hometowns to worship their ancestors, enjoy the full moon, and eat a kind of round muffin, which also symbolizes the family reunion, like moon cakes.
泰國：泰國人將中秋節取名為「祈月節」。他們在這一天有著拜八仙的傳統，祈求八仙可以給人間帶來福氣，來年會更加的順順利利，象徵著一種美好的祝願。

馬來西亞：馬來西亞是華人居住最多的東協國家之一，在那兒月餅經濟非常火爆。為營造節日氣氛，首都吉隆坡的一些華人社團會舉行盛大的月餅盛會，成千上萬的人圍坐一起吃著定製的特大號月餅.當晚還有燈籠遊行晚會，在各大街道可以看到成群的燈籠遊行隊，給中秋節點綴濃鬱的節日氛圍。

日本：在日本有邊賞月邊舉行宴會的風俗習慣，被稱為「觀月宴」。與中國人在中秋節的時候吃月餅不同，日本人在賞月的時候吃江米糰子。由於這個時期正值作物收穫，日本人要舉行各種慶祝活動表達對大自然的感謝。
Japan：In Japan, there is the custom of holding banquets while appreciating the moon, which is called 「Moon-gazing Festival」. Unlike the Chinese who eat moon cakes at the Mid-Autumn Festival, Japanese eat rice dumplings when appreciating the moon.
