Mo'ed Katan or Mo'ed Qatan (Hebrew: מוֹעֵד קָטָן, lit. 'small festival') is the eleventh tractate of Seder Moed of the Mishnah and the Talmud. It discusses the Halakha governing the days between the first and last days of Passover and Sukkot (since both festivals last a week), known as Chol HaMoed (חוֹל הַמּוֹעֵד, 'weekday [of] the festival'). The tractate also covers the laws of aveilut (אֲבֵלוּת, 'mourning'). It has only three chapters and includes Gemara from both the Babylonian and Jerusalem Talmuds.
