China Media Group (CMG) will host the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in Shenyang, the capital city of northeast China's Liaoning Province, on Tuesday when the festival falls this year, to mark this significant occasion.
The Mid-Autumn Festival in China is a festival in honor of the moon and harvest, as well as an occasion for family and friend reunions to eat mooncakes and appreciate the moon.
As part of the celebrations, CMG will host this vibrant show at the Dingxiang Lake Park, situated by Shenyang's largest urban lake, blending traditional Chinese culture with the local color and charm of the city.
In addition to the main stage at the lakeside, the program will also showcase several iconic locations across Shenyang.
The gala will spotlight key topics of interest for audiences at home and abroad. These include the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to China, and significant milestones such as the Chang'e-6 space missions.

He led the delegation on a visit to the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Reclamation Museum, which shows China's revolutionary undertaking of building the city of Shihezi and reclaiming land for farming in what was once a sparsely-populated desert. At the museum, He, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, pointed out that people must carry forward the Corps' spirit, understand the connotations of the times, put resources related to the Party's heritage to great use, and pass down revolutionary traditions.
He said that the Corps should draw motivation from its own seven-decade history, and encourage officials and workers to stay dedicated to working and serving in Xinjiang, and make new and greater contributions.
At Xinjiang Tianye (Group), a state-owned enterprise which is affiliated to the XPCC, He listened to reports on the company's technological innovation and new industrialization development.
The vice premier said that the Corps should adhere to innovation-driven development, develop new quality productive forces according to local conditions, and accelerate a high-end, intelligent and green transition.
