MAJOR shopping malls in Pingshan are offering discounts of up to 90 percent off, according to an announcement at the launch ceremony of a shopping festival in the district yesterday.

The festival, which lasts until Aug. 31, involves four shopping malls with 300 shops and 400 brands. Launched by the Pingshan District Government, it is part of the August Joyful Shopping Trip in Shenzhen.

Chen Huaping, vice head of Pingshan, said, “The festival this year will be the biggest of its kind in the past three years, in terms of scale, fields covered and the variety of activities.”

An online map featuring Pingshan’s major shops, dining and entertainment venues and tourist sites was launched at the ceremony.

Citizens will also find high-quality Pingshan souvenirs at the festival and can recommend items that they believe represent Pingshan to the event’s organizer.

What’s more, the 2019 Slush Music Festival, featuring both Northern European and Chinese DJs and musicians, will be held today at Shenzhen Pingshan High-tech Convention Center.
