Fifty booths will be established to showcase the city's food and intangible cultural heritage items.

A fish-shaped lantern parade, a folk custom unique to the Jiangnan region, will take place at the Nantong Adventure Land three times on the day, and a Nantong-themed jubensha, which is a role-playing murder mystery game popular among young Chinese people, will be offered to event-goers.

Four Chinese bands will be invited to give a concert from July 19 to 20, while various other art performances will also be presented on July 19.

From July 19 to 29, a light show will be staged by drones each night, with over 200 patterns lighting up the night.
