Paul, as I know, people usually sweep tombs on that day. Nowadays, more people will have an outing during the holiday. You can text your friends and wish everything is smooth for them, but avoid to say such words as 'happy holiday'. In some regions, people would feel uncomfortable.

It is a Chinese tradition to commemorate the ancestors, it is  not a celebratory festival.  No celebration. Purely family affairs. Koreans, Vietnamese do have similar tradition and on same date. I think part of confusionism influnce.
