It is also called "March 3rd Song Festival" or "March Song Fair" in Guangxi lunar calendar, which is a traditional song festival of Zhuang nationality.

There are one or two thousand people in small song fairs, and tens of thousands of people in large ones.
the custom of March 3rd in Zhuang nationality
1. Sacrifice is one of the main traditional customs of March 3rd in Zhuang nationality. Legend has it that the ancestors of the Zhuang nationality had the custom of worshipping the dragon mother. In order to worship the dragon mother, the ancestors of the Zhuang nationality held a grand worship ceremony every year on the third day of the third lunar month. For example, during the March 3rd every year, Luobo Town, Wuming District will hold a ritual ceremony for Luoyue's grandmother Wang, with tens of thousands of people participating. This ritual ceremony has become an essential activity of the March 3rd Song Fair and Luoyue Cultural Tourism Festival in Wuming, a Zhuang town in China. Like Mr. An's family and many other Zhuang families, on March 3rd every year, several cousins in the family prepare sweets, biscuits, fruits, paper money and other sacrifices to go up the mountain to pay homage to their ancestors and express their grief for them.
Second, "March 3rd" is not only a time to worship ancestors and sweep graves, but also an annual grand song fair. The ancestors of Zhuang people chanted the Dragon Mother with folk songs, so they gathered to form a song fair. Nowadays, singing folk songs is still a major custom of Wuming people's festivals. No matter the joys and sorrows, the sons and daughters of Zhuang family like to interpret them with songs, and the folk song culture has penetrated into the daily life of Zhuang people. Aunt Pan, the neighbor of my husband's family, loves singing folk songs. She has been listening to the old people singing folk songs since she was a child, and she has become fond of singing folk songs. On March 29th, the 9th Guangxi Song King Competition, Aunt Pan came to the competition site early in Zhuang costume. Aunt Pan feels that even if she can't get the "King of Songs", it is a happy thing to learn skills from folk song lovers from all over the world.
third, eat five-color glutinous rice. Black, red, yellow, white and purple-five-color glutinous rice is a traditional food in Zhuang area, which is named after its various colors. The Zhuang family loves five-color glutinous rice very much and regards it as a symbol of good luck and good harvest. The five-color glutinous rice looks very pleasing to the eye, and I can't help but want to eat!
Legend of March 3rd
A long time ago, in Funiu Mountain, there was a bamboo forest with flowers and birds singing. There lived a beautiful girl in the bamboo forest, and people called her Zhenmei. Zhenmei's parents have passed away one after another, and when they were alive, they promised her to Brother Shi on the mountain. On March 3 that year, Zhenmei missed Brother Shi and went out of the bamboo forest with a flute and walked up the mountain.
Brother Shi was polishing a stone bracelet for Sister Zhen. When he heard the beautiful flute, he hurried down the hill with the stone bracelet and handed it to Sister Zhen, who was shy. The two men couldn't hold back their joy, and agreed that on March 3 next year, Brother Shi would go down the mountain to marry his sister Zhen.
The weather is unpredictable. In that year, the king wanted to choose the most beautiful woman in the world, and Zhenmei was unfortunately taken into the palace. The deep palace wall keeps my sister missing brother Shi day and night, and she wants to find an opportunity to escape from the palace. One day, Zhenmei went out hunting with the king. In the mountains and forests, she seized the opportunity and escaped from the hunting ground. On March 3rd, she fled to Funiu Mountain and finally met Brother Shi, who had been looking forward to it day and night. Who knows that Brother Shi is unusually cold to the sudden appearance of Zhen-mei, and he said to Zhen-mei, "Do you know that a horse does not deserve a pair of saddles and a woman does not deserve two men?"
Zhenmei said, "Although I am in the deep palace, my pure heart for you has not changed." But let Zhen sister cry sadly, Shi Ge always ignored it. Sister Zhen left Brother Shi in tears, and her two lines of tears, like a clear spring, flowed on the ground and became a stream. Brother Shi looked at the stream of tears that appeared in front of him, only to know that Zhenmei's heart was chaste. He regretted hurting Zhenmei's heart and went after Zhenmei along the stream of tears. Zhenmei heard someone chasing after her and knew it was Shi Ge, but she was so sad that she ran out of Funiu Mountain without looking back, but she couldn't walk any further, and she fell to the ground and turned into a glittering and translucent jade. When the jade heard Brother Shi's shouts, it grew bigger and bigger and turned into a jade mountain in the blink of an eye. Brother Shi chased him down the hill and looked at the jade mountain in front of him. Knowing that this was Zhenmei, he cried bitterly and rushed to the jade mountain to tell his pure love for Zhenmei.
I don't know how many years have passed. When people see that the water in Tears Stream is always clear and white, they call it White River. Jade Mountain lies there alone, not connected with Funiu Mountain, so it is called Dushan. On March 3 every year, there is always a cloud floating to the top of Dushan Mountain, and it is lightly drizzling towards Dushan Mountain. People say that it is Shi Ge's tears washing Dushan Mountain. There is also a ballad handed down: "On March 3rd, I washed Dushan. My sister is loyal, and Brother Shi regrets tears for thousands of years. " Over time, people sang "March 3rd, Mount Dushan". Until today, Nanyang people like to go to Dushan for an outing, help the old and bring the young, find the footprints of spring, enjoy the shower of spring rain and celebrate March 3rd.
