Guangzhou Yue Yan: Millennial Lingnan Culture Feast

We bought the lunch package with upgraded makeup & general seating (lucky to be upgraded to the 2nd VIP row). We arrived 2 hrs before lunch for the costume, makeup & hairstyling session. We also had a photoshoot. 1 photo was included FOC. The lunch & performance lasted 2 hrs. The banquet hall was beautifully decorated with traditional pavilions, palace lanterns & Lingnan-inspired décor, creating the feeling of stepping back into an imperial era. Performers presented various acts inspired by Lingnan culture, including Cantonese opera, folk performances & interactive elements that brought the stories & traditions of the region to life. The food itself was not particularly to our liking but being served in an elaborate dynasty setting while dressed in traditional costume made us feel like a royalty. Choose the upgraded makeup package, as the enhanced hairstyle & headpiece create a much more complete & elegant look for both the experience & the photos. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience! We loved our time there. The staff were nice and accomodating. You really just have to be early around 2-3 hours so that you can do the dress, makeup and photoshoot without the time crunch. Remember that there are others as well doing the same thing as you and the photographer is so dedicated that it will take some time. The food was good! The perfomance was superb! I recommend!

Authentic and Interactive Lingnan Culture ​This was a unique experience compared to similar shows I’ve seen in Beijing and Shanghai. Even though it is on a smaller scale, the performance was top-notch with a talented cast of about 12 people handling all the acts at a great pace. I highly recommend the VIP seats for the best view. The level 2 costume and makeup selection is excellent—if you rent a costume, you get a free photo shoot, so definitely arrive early to take advantage of that! They give you one free photo, and you have the option to buy more if you like them. The host was very interactive and I even won a free tea and a fortune cat! The staff were friendly and the food was decent, though the meat options weren't ideal for us as we don't eat lamb. A high-quality, intimate cultural experience!

indeed a smooth communication with the operator and managed to get good seatings to watch the splendid performances by the various artists within two hours, with good food spread.

I booked for lunch. when I called them (as or instruction) after I reached China, I was told they do not have lunch on certain days of the week. We did a top up for dinner as we only have that day available. the seats (not many left) we chose were partially blocked view of the stage. Performances were quite good. Food-wise, there were hits n misses. The hairdo and makeup, photography and games were quite fun,

We really enjoyed the banquet! Arrived about 2 hours early to do makeup and choose our costume. I like how a free photoshoot is included - you get one free photo, and can top up for the rest. Food was good too, and there were games where we could earn money to take part in an auction.

Great performance! Food so so compared to Xuyan. Staff very friendly and helpful. Where I was seated, W-13, it was leaking right onto the table. Overall good experience but facilities can be improved. If taking DiDi, to Galaxy MAITIA Art Center, register at G Floor and restaurant is on 3rd Floor.

enjoyed alot. food was amazed. unexpected that i really feel full by having all the meals. requested no beef and substitute with chicken. really like it

I booked the tickets through Klook, but unfortunately I wasn't able to secure my preferred seats through Klook's customer service. As a result, when I arrived at my hotel in Guangzhou, the friendly receptionist kindly helped me contact Yue Yan on my behalf. Their staff were very responsive and managed to arrange the seating for us, which I truly appreciated. Their willingness to go the extra mile turned what could have been a stressful situation into a pleasant experience. Although we were only able to secure the seats in the second row of the VIP section, the experience was still fantastic. The only minor drawback was that our view was partially obstructed by the guest seated in the first row. I would suggest slightly elevating the second row of VIP seats so that guests seated behind can enjoy a clearer view of the performance. Overall, Yue Yan exceeded my expections in terms of service, professionalism, and the overall experience, despite the initial ticketing inconvenience.

We booked for three people and called ahead to make a reservation. They didn't ask for my name or phone number, only said there would definitely be seats. However, when we arrived the next day, the VIP seats in the first two rows were already taken. Since it was our last day in Guangzhou, we had to accept the arrangement and sit in the second and third rows, with one person in front and two behind. The manager offered us a complimentary drink as compensation, but it wasn't until the show was almost over that they told us the drinks we ordered couldn't be made because the bar staff wasn't working, so they gave us three cans of Coca-Cola instead. Sitting by a pillar in the third row, not only was the view obstructed and unsatisfactory, but more importantly, the overall show and food were neither good to watch nor good to eat. For those unfamiliar with Chinese culture and cuisine, it might be a novel experience, but for us, who specifically came to experience the unique Cantonese banquet cuisine, it was a disappointing trip!
