Known affectionately as \"Chunwan,\" this year's gala was extra special. It was the first since China's Spring Festival was inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. 🌍✨ From its inception in 1983, the gala has been the must-watch show for families on Chinese New Year's Eve, and it's only getting better at showcasing human warmth and rich cultural heritage.
The extravaganza was a rollercoaster of performances! From soulful music and hilarious comedy to traditional arts like opera and jaw-dropping martial arts. There were also mind-blowing magic tricks and acrobatics that defied gravity. 🎶😂🎭🤸
And here's a cool twist: for the fourth year in a row, the gala was available to watch on vertical screens. 📱 This mobile-friendly format has been a hit, racking up 130 million, 190 million, and a whopping 420 million views in the past three years. Talk about going viral!
The 2025 Spring Festival Gala wasn't just a show; it was a toast to humanity and a celebration of cultural heritage that resonates beyond borders. Cheers to family, tradition, and the start of a fantastic new year! 🥂🌟
