The celebration featured a tea art performance, a showcase of traditional Chinese tea culture and interactive roundtable workshops.

In 2019, the United Nations General Assembly designated May 21 as International Tea Day to honor the economic, social and cultural significance of tea. It marked the first international agricultural observance successfully initiated by China and other major tea-producing countries.
