The music festival has been held every year since its launch in 1961 and has become a national-level cultural event with influence both at home and abroad.

This year's festival has been extended from 15 days to three months, from September to late November.

The festival will consist of seven sections, including opening theatrical performances, national performances, mass cultural activities, a "Glory 100 Years" series of performances, and "East Asian Cultural Capital" city-specific performances and forums.
