2017 Charity Parade will kick off at 10am, Feb. 11 when near 20,000 people on 200 teams will take part. This session will witness an additional 30 minutes performance at the very beginning and 12 folk art teams performing along the road.

The starting point is in Xingzhong Stadium where large scale performance will be held at that time. The parading teams will gather on the eastern side of Xingzhong Avenue, at the open space outside Xingzhogn Stadium and in the court of Xingzhong Stadium. The 12 folk art teams include two from Chaozhou and ten from townships of Zhongshan, most of whose performances are related to intangible legacies. The highlight is the debut of a new martial art performance --- Family Ma’s spear show.
