As Zhejiang just held the Asian Games from late September to early October, and is holding the Asian Para Games in its capital Hangzhou, the ceremony also invited athletes and coaches from the Games.

Other participants included national role models, representatives from Jinyun county's sister cities, Taiwan compatriots, people from Hong Kong and Macao, overseas returnees, and representatives from the government and companies.

The ceremony to worship the Yellow Emperor in Jinyun was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2011.
