People invited to Spring Festival Gala

The second rehearsal of the CMG (China Media Group) 2026 Spring Festival Gala held on Sunday continued to invite people from all walks of life to experience the lively festivity vibe up close.

Among the audience members this time were a music content creator, a volleyball coach, and a home appliance repair technician, all widely respected in their communities for professionalism and dedication.

The Spring Festival Gala, known in Chinese as "Chunwan", is an essential part of the Chinese New Year celebrations. Featuring a diverse array of performances, including music, dance, comedy and drama, the gala presents a blend of art, technology and culture, and symbolizes family reunions and the joyful ushering in of the new year.

This year's gala will air on Feb. 16, the eve of the Chinese New Year.
