Every year, many people look forward to CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala, the largest and most famous variety show to celebrate the holiday. But a family in Huaibei, Anhui Province, has its own Spring Festival tradition. It has held its own Spring Festival gala for the past 18 years.

Though the gala is not professional, it has its own homemade style. Lively and full of warmth, the gala includes a variety of acts, including crosstalk, musical performances and magic. There are also many games.

The gala is organized by a committee, which offers each family member a souvenir and sells raffle tickets that are designed by a family member. The grand prize is 100 yuan, and winners are said to have good luck for the year.
