The vast water carries the memory of the country and the bright moon expresses the feeling of reunion. The "2024 CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala" will be held in Shenyang, Liaoning Province. The main stage of the gala is located on the shore of Dingxiang Lake in Shenyang. Relying on the open natural lake water, a 360° panoramic stage is constructed, which cleverly combines modern technology with real landscapes to create a warm and dreamy place for reunion.

As a national historical and cultural city, Shenyang has three world cultural heritage sites and more than 1,500 historical and cultural sites. It is the production site of "great national equipment" and has produced more than 300 "firsts in New China's industry", including the first metal national emblem and the first ordinary lathe. Its profound cultural heritage, colorful historical intangible heritage, delicate humanistic colors, tough industrial characteristics, and warm fireworks atmosphere add more bright colors to the CCTV Autumn Evening with strong traditional Chinese cultural characteristics.

It is reported that the preliminary planning and program plan for this year's CCTV Autumn Gala have been completed, and the main stage of the Autumn Gala has been officially put into use. At present, all work is progressing in an orderly manner. According to the chief directors Li Shen and Jing Xin, this year's Autumn Gala will combine Chinese traditional culture, local characteristics of the host city and poetic and picturesque artistic performances through warm artistic expression, combined with a unique real-life landscape stage and artistic carriers such as singing and dancing, to present a reunion feast with simple cultural value and strong visual impact to the global audience.

The CCTV Autumn Gala, which arrives as scheduled every year, not only accompanies thousands of families to celebrate the holidays, but also carries the patriotism and homesickness of Chinese people around the world. In 2024, the CCTV Autumn Gala will incorporate more annual hot topics and popular cultural and sports topics that the people are concerned about. It will use the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the 25th anniversary of Macao's return to China, and the first sampling of Chang'e 6 on the far side of the moon as the background. Through the perspective of representative characters, the theme is expressed with micro-recording and narrative shooting techniques. In addition, the CCTV will continue to deepen the integrated communication of "thought + art + technology", make full use of new technologies such as ultra-high definition and artificial intelligence, so that the Autumn Gala can break through the limitations of the stage, make the program more integrated with the times, and get closer to the audience.

"Aesthetics, sincerity, lyricism, and romance" are the consistent artistic pursuits of the Central Radio and Television Station's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala. While maintaining high quality, this year's gala will incorporate a variety of cultural elements, including Dunhuang art, shadow puppetry, city landmarks, ancient folk customs, and food culture, allowing the audience to experience the fashion in the classics, the freshness in the heaviness, the details in the grandeur, and the prosperity in the simplicity. By then, the sun in the water with the rising moon, the colorful fireworks all over the city, and the friendly and lovely smiling faces will complement each other and become a classic memory of the Mid-Autumn Night.

This year's Autumn Evening Gala will still adopt a three-part structure, with the moon as the axis of the chapter. The titles of "Moonrise", "Moonlight" and "Bright Moon" respectively express the romance of the bright moon, the longing for the moonlight, and the mind of the moonlight thousands of miles away, highlighting the cultural charm of traditional festivals and implying the endless vitality of Chinese civilization.

Meet at Shenshuizhiyang, the moonlight is even more beautiful tonight. On September 17, 2024, at 8 o'clock on the evening of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the "2024 CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala" exclusively sponsored by Blue Moon will be broadcast simultaneously to global audiences on CCTV General Channel (CCTV-1), Variety Channel (CCTV-3), Chinese International Channel (CCTV-4), Music Channel (CCTV-15), CCTV News, CCTV Video, CCTV.com and other new media platforms, as well as CCTV's related radio frequencies and overseas social platforms.
