The 2024 Peking Opera Cultural Season features diverse programs appealing to the public.

The cultural season will be held at various venues, such as the Mei Lanfang Grand Theatre, Beijing Huguang Guild Hall, and Tianqiao Performing Arts Center. Over 20 professional Peking Opera performances will be staged to give the audience a chance to experience the unique charm of the old art form.

The season has launched a "Youth Drama Society — Peking University and Tsinghua University" event, where students from these prestigious universities participate in Peking Opera salons and discussions, bringing together a century-old opera house — Huguang Guild Hall — and century-old schools, showcasing the unique aesthetic of opera in a youthful, fashionable manner.

The closing performance of Jin Feng Yu Lu will be staged at the Beijing Huguang Guild Hall on Dec 23. This production, presented as a musical drama, showcases Peking Opera, telling the story of its dramatic rise and fall and the artistic journey of its masters while embodying the spirit of hard work and dedication in the new era.
