Some of the Miao’s festivals include the Miao new year, 8th of April, dragon boats festival, new rice festival and autumn festival, in which the Miao New Year is the biggest event for them. Different from the Spring Festival for the Han Chinese, the Miao New Year is normally in the autumn. People provide dishes to their ancestors in the morning of the New Year and liquor to their bulls to thank them for their hard works. Then young people start to dance. At night, young guys from other villagers come and flirt with girls, which is called You Fang.
