Jieyang Spring Festival customs are very rich in content, which can be roughly divided into three categories: life customs, worship customs and entertainment customs. The customs of worship include visiting the gods, walking the elders, holding the sovereign, jumping on the fire, setting the stove, racing pigs and sheep, sending incense boats to pray for peace, and the Chenghuang Temple Fair. Entertainment customs usually include fireworks and dragon performances, drums and flags parades, English songs, nine crocodiles, cranes, golden lions, riddles, and poems.

Living customs mainly include eating soup pills in the winter festival (also known as off-year holidays), rewarding the gods (thanking the gods who made a wish at the beginning of the year or invited them to worship the gods who prayed for peace at home), offering sacrifices to the stove (on December 24th of the lunar calendar, sending the kitchen gods and other gods to heaven to celebrate the New Year), welcoming the Spring Festival on New Year's Eve (around the stove on New Year's Eve), welcoming the gods (on the fourth day of the first month), opening crops in the new year, and celebrating every day.
