From November 20, 2025 to January 11, 2026, Florentia Village Chongqing Luxury Designer Outlet rejoins Sichuan Fine Arts Institute to inaugurate the 2026 Chongqing Light & Tourism Festival. The festival unfolds across the Christmas and New Year period with immersive art installations, interactive experiences, and exclusive year-end promotions. As a key highlight within the broader program, the 4th International 3D Mapping Competition reached its grand finale at Florentia Village Chongqing on December 30. It marks a defining moment in the festival calendar, presenting consumers with an annual entertainment extravaganza that integrates cutting-edge light art with a top-tier international competition.
The festival introduces a multi‑layered light‑art experience across Florentia Village Chongqing. Visitors are welcomed by a large-scale lantern installation, where futuristic geometric forms reinterpreted the traditional Chinese lantern as a symbol of blessing and renewal. Additionally, four illuminated art corridors along the surrounding galleries showcased selected works from previous editions of the Chongqing International Light Art Festival. The 4th International 3D Mapping competition artworks transformed Florentia Village Chongqing’s Italian-inspired architecture into a monumental projection canvas. Through large-scale digital storytelling, architectural space was reimagined as a living medium for light and motion.
This year’s competition further underscored the festival’s international ambition and creative influence. Artists from 14 countries presented 23 finalist works, using advanced projection technology to reinterpret architectural forms through diverse cultural perspectives. An 11-member jury of international experts evaluated the entries. Together, they recognised outstanding projects that balanced technical excellence with creative innovation and bold imaginations, giving visitors an extended opportunity to see how light and technology can reshape the cultural texture of the city.
After five years in Chongqing, Florentia Village Chongqing has evolved beyond a traditional retail destination. By mobilizing artistic talent across borders, this collaborative practice has created a lasting exchange platform that enables local innovation to reach international audiences. Florentia Village Chongqing is committed to broadening the boundaries of its “culture, commerce, tourism, sports, and exhibitions” integration model, creating a micro vacation destination where artistic immersion meets exclusive retail experiences.
