From July 6 to 21, the exhibition features 13 dance dramas and poems and 70 excellent dance performances with distinct themes, rich content, and diverse subjects.

Notable performances for commemorating the 100th anniversary of Jia Zuoguang's birth, the dance drama "Xian Xinghai," and dance programs from Macao will also be featured.

Collaborating with the local Ulan Muqi art troupe, small performing squads consisting of performance teams and artists will be formed. They will perform for schools, communities, pastoral areas, and military camps in Dongsheng district and Ejin Horoo Banner of Ordos city. This will give more people the opportunity to experience high-quality dance performances up close.
