Shanghai Local Events
There are numerous interesting events, festivals and cultural celebrations taking place in Shanghai throughout the year, which may add more color to your trip. Make sure you check here regularly to keep up to date with the latest news and events in Shanghai.
Festivals in China are hard to pin down as the traditional ones are organized by the Chinese lunar calendar. This means they are often on different dates every year. For major holidays such as May Day and National Day, the government announces the official holiday period close to the event, which can be frustrating for those wishing to make travel plans. If you want to avoid traveling during major holiday times, remember to book well ahead and expect to pay a higher rate.
