Tazaungdaing Lights Festival is held on the full moon day of Tazaungmon according to the Myanmar Calendar (mid-November). Houses and public buildings are colorfully illuminated everywhere. Kathina robes and other requisites are offered to the Holy Order at Kahtein festival (ceremony of offering robes to monks). The offering of Mathothigan is held on the eve of the Full Moon Day of Tazaungmon. Mathothingan is a robe that is woven in a day. Today, teams of weavers compete with one another to complete weaving robes overnight. The woven robes are then offered to the great images of Buddha.
