Li Jie, CEO of barley, interpreted the recently held 2023 Anaya Xiami Music Festival in this way.

In the two days and three nights, music fans go to the Anaya Auditorium and Lonely Library in the morning to take photos, and in the afternoon sit on the beach to experience the charm brought by sound and light, opening up new cultural and entertainment lifestyles for young people. The event brings together 27 well-known musicians from both domestic and international sources. The legendary British band Suede gave their final one hour performance, admiring the band's performances of "West Lake" and "Goodbye Jack".

"The content structure of a music festival is similar to writing an article, it should have a beginning, a middle transition, and an end. The design of the Eve party and sunrise special event is a part of the whole, and the presentation of content with context is the perfect combination." Yin Liang, the chief producer of the Xiami Music Festival, said that to build a music festival brand, the most important thing is to output unique ideas and form a differentiated user experience, not seeking the maximum, but seeking the best.

Statistics show that the proportion of 18-29 year old ticket buyers at this music festival is 55%, and the proportion of cross city performances is 94%.
