The four-day Sanyuesan Festival will be held from April 6 to 9 from two separate venues: Lingshui Li autonomous county and Wuzhishan city, Hainan province.

Various folk performances featuring love and gratitude will be staged at the Lingshui venue. A series of distinct activities will be offered for Zhuang minority youth to help them understand the meaning of the traditional festival.

People will not only be treated to romantic performances, but also get a chance to experience to bond with their family, hometown, and motherland.

Folk singing and dancing performances will also be held at the Wuzhishan venue. This year's highlight will be the sacrifice ceremony of the local Paolongkou culture. The event will be broadcast online, allowing more people to witness it.
