The event is organized into eight themed sections, showcasing more than 200 quality brands and nearly 1,000 carefully curated products.

Unlike typical Chinese New Year goods markets, visitors here can not only purchase local Guizhou specialties and festive foods from across the country but also enjoy a wide range of modern and trendy entertainment options. Additionally, seven themed photo spots have been set up to help guests capture picture-perfect moments.

According to Jiang Hongshun, project director of the Guiyang International Conference & Exhibition Center, the event aims not only to foster a strong festive atmosphere but also to provide young and middle-aged residents in Guiyang with a space to relax and shop for Chinese New Year goods tailored to their tastes. It has become a must-visit destination for tourists in Guiyang.

"At the event, alongside a rich selection of Chinese New Year goods, we are offering locally inspired coffee. We have specially invited Hooloo Coffee's AI robot barista from Shenzhen to offer a tech-infused coffee experience," Jiang added. "Furthermore, in the stage area, we have prepared a variety of exciting programs, including rock band performances, live podcast sessions, and electronic music shows."
