The Guangxi Cultural Tourism Carnival was held in Hezhou from November 6 to 8, 2026. Under the theme “Poetic Huangyao, At Ease in Guangxi,” the event featured six activities built around the two themes of “all industries + cultural tourism” and “cultural tourism + all industries,” showcasing the results of cultural tourism integration in Guangxi.

The two themes presented different approaches to integrating cultural tourism: “all industries + cultural tourism” focused on combining other industries with cultural tourism, while “cultural tourism + all industries” emphasized links between cultural tourism and other industries. This meant the event focused not only on showcasing cultural tourism, but also on how different industries could connect with cultural tourism activities.

For industry professionals, how the six activities demonstrated these connections and whether the showcased content could lead to sustained cooperation are key points for assessing the carnival’s industry impact. The event’s long-term effect on the cultural tourism industry remains to be seen in light of subsequent cooperation and actual progress.
