Visitors to Beijing throughout October can enjoy "Together! We Shine!", the theme of the 2025 Beijing Chaoyang International Light Festival.
The festival blends modern technology, art, and culture to present a dazzling spectacle for both local residents and global visitors.
This year's festival again welcomes internationally renowned director Richard Taylor from New Zealnd and international light art teams, including a Singaporean team, to collaborate on creative design.
Partnering with the China Urban Sculpture Artists Association and China's top eight art academies, the event is showcasing nearly 60 large-scale light and sculpture installations during the festival.
The festival's main venue transforms the Liangma River, its banks, and the adjacent Chaoyang Park into "a luminous wonderland".
Visitors can discover interactive aquatic performances featuring technologically advanced installations like the Blue Whale and Pegasus - mechanical creatures that "swim" across the river.
Other highlights include the BBC Earth Live Symphony Concert, the UK animated family show Shaun the Sheep, and Yin Ge by the Hong Kong Cinema Classics Symphony Concert.
The renovated Shell Theater at Chaoyang Park, Beijing's first outdoor water-based performance space, will officially open to the public during the festival.
Nearby, the floating "Cube" stage on North Lake will create "a dreamlike fusion" with Beijing's iconic skyline.
Over 100 performances will also be presented in collaboration with the 2025 Liangma River Art Season, featuring domestic and international artists.
