The 21st China (Shenzhen) International Cultural Industries Fair (ICIF) will take place from May 22 to May 26, 2025. One of the key highlights of this year's event is the Greater Bay Area Cultural Industry Innovation Exhibition, which will spotlight cutting-edge cultural technologies, creative product showcases, and cross-regional collaboration.
Themed "Innovation Leading the Trend, Creativity Lighting Up Life," this year's ICIF promises to be a dynamic celebration of culture, art, and creativity.
Following its established "Comprehensive + Professional Exhibitions" format, the 2025 edition will feature eight major exhibition halls — three comprehensive halls and five professional halls — each spanning 20,000 square meters. In total, the event will occupy an expansive 160,000 square meters of exhibition space.
With more than 120,000 cultural products on display, over 4,000 investment and trade projects, and nearly 200 on-site trade events, this year's ICIF is expected to be a dynamic engine for cultural development and international exchange.
The IClF is the only national, international and comprehensive cultural fair in China. It is officially approved by the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry, and serves as a key platform for cultural exchange, exhibition, and trade. The fair focuses on promoting the products and projects of China’s cultural industries, supporting their growth domestically while also propelling the globalization of Chinese culture.
