When island holidays meet authentic rural flavours, autumn in Sanya gains a new reason to be anticipated. The 2025 Sanya Rural Food Festival will take place in Liupan Village, Jiyang District. This National Day Golden Week, you can not only taste Sanya’s local specialities but also enjoy a seaside celebration blending food, culture, and holiday atmosphere amidst coconut groves, ocean breezes, and the rustic charm of village life.

Island Rural Flavours

Under the theme “Rural Revitalisation × Agritourism Integration”, the festival combines rural culture, culinary experiences, and island holiday scenes to create an event full of local vibrancy and festive spirit. Multiple themed zones will be set up on-site, offering Hainan’s native flavours, rural specialities, and interactive activities. Unlike traditional night markets or simple food fairs, this is an immersive island lifestyle experience. By day, you can wander through coconut groves and markets while snacking; by night, enjoy the festive island atmosphere with lights, music, and sea breezes. It’s a slower, more relaxed way to experience Sanya’s holiday rhythm – far from the rush of crowded attractions.

Themed Activities

Each day of the event features a different theme – from ethnic culture and island vibes to family fun and Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations. Beyond tasting great food, you’ll discover many ways to enjoy the holiday. The opening ceremony will present Li and Miao dances and welcoming performances. The island vibe theme blends music, markets, and night-time ambience for a laid‑back seaside experience. The Li and Miao culture theme offers more interactive ethnic activities. Family and ancient‑style themes will add immersive holiday experiences. As the event coincides with National Day and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the atmosphere will be enhanced with festive decorations and evening events – allowing you to enjoy the charm of Sanya’s celebrations under the moonlight and sea breeze.

How to Participate

The festival is open to the public; you can join directly on-site. We recommend planning your holiday trip in advance and staying tuned for follow‑up information on event schedules and transportation.
