Zhuhai ranked 12th among 293 domestic prefecture-level cities in the urban publicity index, which was recently released by China City News of People's Daily and the Chinese City Brand Institute.

These cities were evaluated on the basis of their urban publicity efforts from March 1, 2022 to Feb 28, 2023. This list is considered as one of the most professional research evaluations for urban publicity in China, and is an important reference to measure the effect of urban publicity.

The Melodies over Seas and Mountains online concert, which was held in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Diplomatic Ties between China and the Netherlands, took place on May 23, 2022.

The city's development in industry, urban construction, and transportation has also been widely recognized.

In December, Zhuhai received the title of "Pioneering City in Business Attraction" in the 2022 Analysis Report on Chinese Cities' Overseas Influence by Cankaoxiaoxi and Xinhua's News Information Center.
