Cloud celebration
To enrich people's holiday, cultural organizations and online platforms have planned a series of activities online, offering residents "cloud festival celebration."
Anhui Museum in East China's Anhui province, for example, will stage five livestreamed shows so that audiences can enjoy the exhibitions online. The museum has invited calligraphy, painting, paper-cutting and lantern-making masters to create their works and share them online.
Online streaming platform iQiyi will have a particular "Spring Festival" section, offering movies, TV plays and other forms of entertainment during the festival, said Wang Zhaonan, vice president of iQiyi.
In Beijing's Daxing district, which reported local COVID-19 cases in the past few days, residents have been asked not to leave the city.
"We have organized an online celebration event, soliciting and displaying photos," said Zhao Jing, Party branch chief of a residential community in Yizhuang Township of Daxing.
The event, called "displaying your cleared plate at the New Year's Eve banquet," is aimed at avoiding food waste, said Zhao.
