Seminars to promote the international communication of ceramic culture are likewise scheduled. Nearly 1,000 ceramic businesses as well as studios and merchants from China and abroad are showcasing their products and works in an exhibition area of 130,000 square meters, with a focus on heritage exchange and innovation. According to the organizers, merchants in the trading center will carry on the influence of the porcelain fair and help build a benchmark ceramic market trade globally.

The fair also serves to spotlight the rich cultural heritage and artistic charm of Jingdezhen, a thousand-year-old town and international porcelain capital. To further promote ceramic culture, showcase the city's charm and enhance the experience for both citizens and visitors, Jingdezhen is hosting more than 60 supporting activities, including the Mingfangyuan cultural and creative market and the Taoxichuan spring and autumn art fair and nighttime market for ceramics and delicacies.
