Attendees dressed in traditional Miao attire witnessed thrilling knife-ladder climbing, fire-walking, and a drum performance of synchronized dances and powerful drumbeats symbolizing ethnic unity.

Traditional songs, skits, martial arts, folk shows, and costume parades drew cheers and applause.

At noon, the grounds transformed into a carnival as thousands joined a collective dance. Visitors were invited into the lively three-step rhythm by their Miao hosts, creating a joyous, immersive celebration amid open fields with a mountain backdrop.
