The integration of music festivals with tourism has proven to be a successful strategy for Guanshanhu district in Southwest China's Guizhou province, as it continues to attract a significant number of participants and boost the local economy.

Since the beginning of this year, Guanshanhu has successfully merged non-profit performances with commercial shows, effectively promoting the recovery and development of the performing arts industry.

So far, 21 commercial performances and over 350 music bar residencies have been conducted, attracting nearly 90,000 participants.

Moreover, spaces have been provided for bands, performers, and music enthusiasts to showcase their talents in various locations throughout the district, including on streets, by the sides of lakes, on public squares, and in flower fields.

This initiative aims to spread the love of music throughout the city. In the first half of this year, a total of 27 events were planned, attracting nearly 30,000 people to join in.
