Each year, at the beginning of the lunar new year, the Tiapo Festival (跳坡节; pinyin: Tiàopō Jié; literally "leaping on the hillsides festival"), a Miao festival featuring the music and dance, is held.[2][3] Other nationalities living in the area, including the Yi, Gelao, Zhuang, and Han, also participate in this festival.
