Romance and Tradition from Shenyang
BEIJING, Aug. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Preparations are well underway in the northeastern city of Shenyang for hosting the 2024 China Media Group Mid-Autumn Festival Gala. The Gala's main stage is being erected against the picturesque backdrop of Dingxiang Lake. Featuring an illuminated river and full moon, it will create a romantic setting for the various performances. The evening's entertainment will be enhanced by snapshots of the ancient sites, local customs and major landmarks of this historically and culturally rich city.
Since ancient times, Mid-Autumn Festival has been an occasion for Chinese people to express their longing for home and their yearning to be reunited with family and friends. In recent years, the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala has become a much-loved part of the celebrations that draws together Chinese people at home and overseas, and demonstrates to the world the unique charm of the country's traditions.

Already, a number of social media initiatives, including "Moments of Being Loved" and "Full Moon at Night on My Camera" are giving audiences at home and abroad the opportunity to participate, by inviting them to express what this special night means to them. Some of the best submissions may feature in the Gala itself.
