China Media Corporation is broadcasting the 2026 Spring Festival Gala live. It is one of the most anticipated cultural events, bringing together audiences around the world.
The theme of the 2026 Spring Festival Gala is "Whirlwind of Racing Horses, Unstoppable Fervor." The ancient Chinese word "qiji," meaning thoroughbred, symbolizes a relentless striving forward. It echoes the modern word for "miracle" and conveys the Chinese people's determination to create miracles. The key visual image, embodying the idea of "four horses galloping together," reflects the shared aspirations for the new era.
The concert featured several technological premieres: for the first time, exclusively domestic equipment was used for a full 8K production cycle, and NVI (Network Video Infrastructure) technology was used for vertical broadcasting in ultra-high definition. These technologies, combined with 360-degree surround sound, create a truly immersive and accessible audiovisual experience for viewers.
A major creative breakthrough was the use of AIGC to generate visual effects onstage in real time. The artistic installation "Plunging Horses," consisting of 14 programmable modules, embodies the idea of rapid movement. Inspired by traditional Chinese culture and combining dance, opera, and singing, the program, using artificial intelligence (AI) and extended reality (XR) technologies, presents a unique show to audiences.
The concert also serves as a bridge for cultural exchange. Artists from various countries present musical and dance numbers on stage, embodying the principle of "unity in diversity." The stage is also open to ordinary people, and their heartfelt performances convey the joy of life.
