March 3rd is a traditional national festival of Buyi people. Different regions. The content of the festival is also different. Buyi people in Madang, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province call the third day of the third lunar month "Land Committee" Festival. According to the Buyi elderly, after the spring, ground silkworms harmed crops and ate corn seedlings and other crops. So, on the third day of March, they took fried popcorn to worship silkworms on the slope. They sang folk songs and ate popcorn on the hillside. It is said that this can "fascinate" the prefectural party Committee and block their mouths so that they can't bite seeds and seedlings. In some areas, this day is regarded as a day to worship social gods and mountain gods. The social god is the founder of a village or several neighboring villages, and temporarily raises funds to buy pigs and cows for sacrifice. On the funeral day, outsiders are forbidden to enter the village. On this day, Buyi people in Wangmo want to eat three-color glutinous rice, Guanling area wants to cross Tomb-Sweeping Day, and Buyi people in western Guizhou want to sweep their graves.

According to legend, there is a family of three sisters in the stockade who are married and have a good life. One day, grandpa wanted to see his grandson. When the grandchildren of the three families heard about it, they all tried their best to let grandpa go to their home first. Grandpa said, on March 3, you take your best waxy food to Zhaizi intersection, and I'll go first if anyone tastes good. On this day, the eldest daughter fried meatballs, the second daughter cooked rice cakes and the third daughter cooked five-color glutinous rice. Grandpa came to Zhaikou and opened three things. Five-color glutinous rice is his favorite because of its bright color and fragrant taste, so he went to his third daughter's house first. Since then, every Buyi family has cooked glutinous rice on the third day of the third lunar month to entertain relatives and friends. Over time, it formed the annual March Festival.
