元宵节，中国的传统节日之一，又称上元节、小正月、元夕或灯节，时间为每年农历正月十五。
正月是农历的元月，古人称“夜”为“宵”，正月十五是一年中第一个月圆之夜，所以称正月十五为“元宵节”。
元宵节的形成有一个较长的过程，根源于民间开灯祈福古俗。
元宵节主要有赏花灯、吃汤圆、猜灯谜、放烟花等一系列传统民俗活动。
节期节俗
元宵节的节期与节俗活动，是随历史的发展而延长、扩展的。就节期长短而言，汉代才一天，到唐代已为三天，宋代则长达五天。
明代更是自初八点灯，一直到正月十七的夜里才落灯，是中国历史上最长的灯节，与春节相接，白昼为市，热闹非凡，夜间燃灯，蔚为壮观。特别是那精巧、多彩的灯火，更使其成为春节期间娱乐活动的高潮。
至清代，又增加了舞龙、舞狮、跑旱船、踩高跷、扭秧歌等“百戏”内容，只是节期缩短为四到五天。

译文：
有一个传说是这样的，在古代，有一位神界天鹅闯入人间被猎手误杀。天界最高的神玉皇大帝因此发誓为这只天鹅报仇。
他开始制定计划，派出一支天兵天将于农历正月十五来到人间，命令他们火烧所有的人和动物。但是其他神仙并不赞同这一计划，他们冒着生命危险提醒人间的人们。
结果，在正月十五这一天前后，每一个家庭在门外挂起灯笼，并燃放烟花爆竹，给天兵天将造成各家各户起火的假象。
通过这种方式，人们成功骗过了玉皇大帝，人类也因此逃过灭绝的危险。

元宵在早期节庆形成过程之时，只称正月十五日、正月半或月望，隋以后称元夕或元夜。唐初受了道教的影响，又称上元，唐末才偶称元宵。但自宋以后也称灯夕。到了清朝，就另称灯节。在国外，元宵也以The Lantern Festival而为人所知。正月十五这一天晚上，中国人素有赏花灯、吃汤圆、猜灯谜、放烟花等一系列传统民俗活动。
