The epidemic situation in the UK is still severe, although the Chinese cannot celebrate their festivals with festivities, they are still full of enthusiasm and actively prepare and present a series of high-quality online public welfare Spring Festival Gala under the limited resources and conditions of the current lock down.


Among them, the eighth UK Beijing Spring Festival Gala co-hosted by the UK Beijing Arts Center and the UK Beijing Association has overcome the numerous technical difficulties and challenges that were held online for the first time.


With the help of the major UK Chinese organisations, it has lived up to the expectations of becoming the highlight of the Chinese New Year celebrations in the UK.

In recent years, the famous soprano singer Jane Maria has fulfilled the mission of International Cultural Ambassador given to her by many organizations.


She has gone international and devoted herself to the exchange and dissemination of Chinese and Western cultures.


Jane was sincerely invited to perform at the gala and became the highlight of the show.


She freely used the two singing methods of operatic and pop to interpret "You and Me" in Chinese and English, with exchanging backgrounds between the snowing Forbidden City and the rising modern Beijing , a fantastic story telling the good wishes of ancient and modern China opening its arms to the world: "You and Me, from one world, we are family.".

Warm and peaceful, let Jane Maria take you into the season of love and family with this "You and Me":

The UK Beijing Spring Festival Gala has received strong support from the Chinese Embassy in the UK every year.


This year, the Embassy Counselor Lu Haitian attended the broadcast studio on behalf of the embassy and gave a warm holiday greeting to the Chinese in the UK. The MP for the City of London and Westminster (where London Chinatown is located), Nickie Aiken, extended her best wishes for the Year of the Ox and her sincere gratitude to the Chinese in the UK for their outstanding contributions to the epidemic in the UK.


Gala also received letters of congratulations and good wishes from British dignitaries such as Lord Mohamed Iltaf Sheikh, Lord Brian Cotter, Baroness Manzila Pola Uddin, and Westminster City Council leader Rachael Robathan.


Participating in this year's performance includes outstanding artists in various art forms from China and UK.


The content of the program is diversified and rich, once again enabling more British and Chinese people to truly understand each other's culture and further build a bridge between China and Britain. The world premiere of the show received  rave reviews from more than 300,000 audience.
