Hainan’s 2025 Dongpo Festival celebrates poet Su Dongpo through AI, tourism, and culture, redefining his legacy and boosting regional development.
Hainan is revitalizing its cultural and economic landscape through the third China (Hainan) Dongpo Culture and Tourism Festival, a yearlong event launched in March 2025 that celebrates Su Shi, the 11th-century poet known as Su Dongpo.
The festival, centered in Chengmai County and featuring academic forums, pop concerts, and Peace of Mind: Dongpo—China’s first AI-themed musical using an AI-generated Su Dongpo—redefines his legacy by highlighting a mutual transformation between the poet and the island.
Rather than seeing Hainan solely as a place of exile, the event emphasizes how the island shaped Su Dongpo’s wisdom and resilience, now serving as a living symbol of his spirit.
By merging tradition with modern technology and tourism, the initiative promotes cultural heritage, artistic innovation, and sustainable regional development.
