All Buddhists live by the Five Moral Precepts which are refraining from:
harming living thingstaking what is not givensexual misconductlying or gossiptaking intoxicating substances eg drugs or drink
Buddhist monks live by ten precepts. The ten precepts are the five precepts plus refraining from the following:
taking substantial food after midday (from noon to dawn)dancing, singing and musicuse of garlands, perfumes and personal adornment like jeweleryuse of luxurious beds and seatsaccepting and holding money, gold or silver
Therefore on celebration days, Buddhists will often eat vegetarian food and will not drink alcohol. Gifts will be simple, especially those given to monks. Monks in particular will not dress up, and people will not eat to excess. However, Buddhist celebrations are also very joyful, colourful occasions.
