​iQIYI, China’s top online entertainment platform, revealed plans to build iQIYI LAND in Wuhan, Hubei province, Central China. Located in the Hanyangzao Cultural and Creative Industry Park, this is the company’s inaugural project within an urban renewal effort, establishing iQIYI LAND as the city’s latest cultural and tourism landmark by blending proprietary IP with tech-enhanced immersive experiences. Scheduled for a 2027 opening, it marks iQIYI’s fourth theme park and the first in Central China, developed in collaboration with Wuhan Urban Construction Group. It will bring iQIYI’s most popular Chinese IPs to life via immersive theaters, immersive experiences, immersive stage shows, photo spots recreating iconic film-and-TV scenes, live character interactions, and social games, complemented by cultural tourism experiences centered on Wuhan’s local heritage. The outcome is a destination crafted not only to entertain but also to strengthen the emotional bonds that audiences already share with iQIYI’s content. This announcement signals a larger transformation in China’s cultural tourism sector, where content and emotional appeal are eclipsing traditional scenery and ticket revenue as the main attractions. “IP and technology are the drivers accelerating this transition,” said Gong YU, founder and CEO of iQIYI. Leveraging technology, we will harness IP as our central focus, providing emotional value online via dramas, animation, and variety shows, and offline through theme parks and IP-driven consumer products. Leveraging the Established Success of iQIYI LAND Yangzhou. Wuhan’s new iQIYI LAND builds upon the successful launch of iQIYI LAND Yangzhou, which debuted on February 8, 2026, and has garnered ratings exceeding 4.9 out of 5 on Dianping, Meituan, and Ctrip, thanks to its fusion of drama IP attractions and tech-driven immersive experiences.  

​Scotland has taken to New York this week with taxis wrapped in tartan cruising Manhattan in celebration of NYC Tartan Week. The campaign forms part of VisitScotland’s efforts to promote Scotland in its largest international market, using NYC Tartan Week to encourage American visitors to book trips. The tartan taxis were accompanied by performers from The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, who posed against the Manhattan skyline as a vivid showcase of Scottish culture ahead of the NYC Tartan Day Parade on Sixth Avenue this Saturday, where Outlander star Sam Heughan serves as Grand Marshal. Tartan Day on April 6 honors the deep cultural and historical ties between Scotland and the United States, with NYC Tartan Week building on the celebration and peaking at the Tartan Day Parade.

Cat Leaver, Director of Strategy and Creative Intelligence at VisitScotland, said: NYC Tartan Week, culminating in the Tartan Day Parade, represents a key strategic opportunity to spotlight Scotland in our largest inbound tourism market, which holds substantial growth potential. It offers a platform to highlight what makes Scotland a must-visit destination. Our presence in New York enables direct engagement with US audiences, media, and travel trade partners, fostering awareness and boosting future travel demand. With a full schedule of events, fresh experiences, and better connectivity—including direct flights from New York to Glasgow—2026 is the ideal time to visit Scotland.

Alan Lane, Creative Director of The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, stated: The Tattoo is honored to showcase Scotland to the world, and Tartan Week offers an excellent chance to engage New York audiences. Delivering a slice of the Tattoo to the city highlights the exceptional creativity and talent visitors enjoy anywhere, anytime in Scotland.
