Many cities across China have incorporated smart robots and drones into festive performances during the ongoing National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, which runs from October 1 to 8, adding a vibrant technological touch to the celebrations.

In Shenzhen city, a tech hub in south China's Guangdong Province, smart robots will transform into dancers after dark to perform the Yingge dance, a popular folk dance in Guangdong that combines opera, dance, and martial arts.

A group of humanoids with highly flexible joints will make striking figures while executing the complex Chinese choreography "Thousand-Hand Bodhisattva."

During the holiday season, a humanoid robot will also perform a well-known dance, with its agile movements inspiring many children to join enthusiastically.

"I find the robot quite agile, especially its feet and hands. Dancing alongside the robot brings me joy," said Gan Zixuan, an audience member.

The drone performance on October 1 in Guangzhou's Zhongshan City amazed both locals and tourists. Spectators were in awe of the grand, dazzling show, featuring over 1,000 drones that created images of festive elements in the night sky. 

A similar drone display was also held in Huangmei county, Hubei Province, to celebrate the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival, providing breathtaking visual spectacles for residents and visitors alike.
