Are you sure you do not mean Sabbats? An Esbat is just the full moon. You can celebrate it however you wish. I prefer to do a meditation on the full moon. If possible, a bonfire with an offering to the divinities is also nice. I like to make a small fire and toss in some dried fruit and herbs, then pray to them ^_^

Esbats are rites held for the purpose of communing with the Moon's energies and are regarded as the time for most magickal workings. As opposed to the Sabbats, which are fire or sun festivals.

An esbat is simply the celebration of the full moon, and you can do anything magical to celebrate it. Some of the best things to do are workings that you need a extra boost of energy for. Sabbats are a celebration of the seasons, and the suns continuous journey across our sky :)

Sabbats:
Yule 20-23 of December
Imbolc 2 of February
Ostara 19-22 of March
Belantine 1 of May
Midsummer 19-23 of June
Lughnasadh 1 of August
Mabon 21-24 of September
Samhain 31 of October-1 of November

You can celebrate them however you wish, but I find that a celebration to "start off" or "tie up" the season is a good way to go. Depending on where you live, and your culture, each is the start or end of a season. Meditations, offerings to those that have passed, group gatherings etc. are a few ways you can celebrate them :)

normally, my celebration is a chant to energize my dragon pentacle with a protection spell for another month.if i need spell work done, i'll cast a circle, give an offering of cake and juice [wine for sabbats] then do my magic work. i rarely cast a circle on the full moon, it's usually a chant and a meditation.
