In order to protect the traditional festival culture and make it an important cultural element of the Chinese nation again, we must keep pace with the times instead of standing still. Only when traditional festivals meet the needs of the new social, economic and cultural environment can the festival culture be accepted by the public, and the inheritance, development and even development of traditional festivals can be realized.
