On July 10th, the launch ceremony of the hundred day countdown for the 22nd Shanghai International Art Festival was held at the Shanghai International Art Festival Center in China. This year's art festival will be held from October 15th to November 15th. The scale of projects such as performance exhibitions, Art Sky, and Youth Support Committee has exceeded previous years, and it is expected to hold over 400 various activities, benefiting 6 million visitors. Overseas projects account for nearly 60%, with a 20% increase in activities across various sectors. In August, the plays of this year's art festival will be officially announced.

A large number of international renowned artists, masterpieces, and groups will return with a heavy weight, and their premiere, exhibition, and debut projects will gather on the Shanghai stage. The festival actively responded to the 10th anniversary of the "the Belt and Road" initiative, and set up special "Silk Road Light" series performances, exhibitions, forums and other activities. The art festival is also based on its own development. On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the "Youth Assistance Plan", it is the first time to recruit works from around the world. It has set up a visual arts section, further expanding the connotation and influence of ARTRA, a new brand of art integration, and creating a "nuclear explosion point" for the art festival to break through boundaries and attract young audiences.

For the past three years, the Art Festival Center has maintained close interaction with the domestic and international entertainment industry. The news of the restart of this year's art festival quickly received widespread feedback from friends at home and abroad. In the opening ceremony of the art festival, more than 40 well-known artists and executives from performing arts institutions at home and abroad, including Placido Domingo, Aku Hamm, Tan Dun, and Shen Wei, presented their sincere wishes for the hosting of the 22nd Shanghai International Art Festival in China.

The art festival relies on H5 games to release the main visual of this year's art festival, with the concept of "the rhythmic window of art birds returning home" and the main design element of the flying "art bird" image, representing the return and continuation of the art festival. As the countdown to the big screen began and froze on the day of the hundred day countdown to this year's art festival, the "art bird" spread its wings and flew to the sky to overlook Shanghai, spreading its wings to explore the world. The flowing ribbons then transformed into the main visual of this year's art festival. The game can generate an art festival poster for players that belongs to them.
