Apart from the exhibition, the Art Night merged lantern displays, market stalls, hands-on intangible cultural heritage experiences, performances and fashion runways.

Inheritors of intangible cultural heritage were invited to give live craft demonstrations, such as paper-cutting, shadow puppetry and snuff bottle painting.

The Art Night also served as a promotional platform for many Chinese cities, which showcased their regional culture through special food tastings and music and dance performances.
