The official release says the 2026 Jingdezhen Forum, themed World Heritage and Dialogue among Civilizations, brings 89 overseas guests from 24 countries and includes a main forum, four parallel forums, study visits and an outcome exhibition. It does not publish one general-public registration link, so verify access item by item.
What the official release confirms
The forum runs October 17–20 under the theme World Heritage and Dialogue among Civilizations. It reports 89 overseas guests from 24 countries and invitations to more than 40 embassies in China plus representatives of international organizations including UNESCO and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation.
The program includes a main forum and four parallel forums on heritage transmission and innovation, copyright and city development, contemporary handicraft value, and Generation Z and heritage, plus study visits and an outcome display.
What it does not confirm
The release gives no single registration channel, ticket price or public seat allocation for every forum, and does not say all study visits are open. Dates and a city location are not proof of admission.
Use only a clearly published government, organizer or venue channel to verify name lists, documents, security and language support. Never buy a badge, invitation or alleged inside place from an individual.
What this means for city visitors
International delegates and professional programs may increase traffic in some areas. Keep a half-day flexible and avoid tight transfers near venues; reserve an outcome exhibition only if a separate public notice confirms access.
Public museums, ceramic districts and studios continue under their own rules, and a delegate itinerary is not automatically a public route. Obtain permission before photographing participants or closed sessions.
