The Third Bay Area Tourism and Culture Festival will take place on May 1-3 during the Labor Day holiday in the Fengxian Bay Tourism Area — located in Shanghai's Fengxian district — transforming the seaside into a striking spectacle of culture, sports, commerce and travel.

Highlights

Creative market

Longtengge Plaza at the Fisherman's Wharf will host 30 display stands featuring sports gear, cultural and creative products, travel souvenirs and more. Visitors can wander through its themed areas — including a culture display, interactive games zone, sports trading section and photo-worthy hotspots — soaking up the dynamic spirit of a modern cultural marketplace.

Coastal cycling and hiking adventures

Participants who complete the ride or hike will receive a limited-edition spring gift — their choice of a playful kite, sand-digging kit, or creative souvenir.

Golden Week specials

To lift the holiday spirits, Shanghai Blue Sands and Water Park is offering a "Buy Three, Get One Free" ticket deal during the Labor Day holiday, making group outings with family and friends even more fun — and affordable.

Boosting local vibes with ticket stub economy

This year, the Fengxian Bay Tourism Area is pushing beyond traditional sightseeing, by creating a multi-dimensional tourism and leisure experience. Visitors who show their event tickets between May 1 and 5 can enjoy a 12 percent discount at selected restaurants, hotels and stores there.

A big plus is that finishers of the cycling and hiking activities can also unlock the same exclusive deals — because a little exercise really deserves a little extra reward!
