Shanghai Happy Valley in suburban Songjiang District kicked off its summer dual-park carnival in July, combining live music performances at its EV Music Park and full operation of Playa Maya Water Park for all-day land and water entertainment.

Visitors can enjoy water amusement activities in the daytime and attend live music parties at night across the two connected scenic spots through late August.

The EV Music Park has completed hardware upgrades for this summer season. A newly built main stage equipped with high-end lighting and audio facilities and a giant 3D screen delivers immersive audio-visual performances for crowds.

The park will host a lineup of emerging artists on scheduled summer nights. Multiple music genres, ranging from soft pop ballads to rock and hip-hop shows, run daily on six stages with nearly 100 performances every day.

A summer water splashing party is also held at the amusement park, helping visitors beat the summer heat with interactive cool-down games.

Playa Maya Water Park is rolling out a full lineup of all-age water entertainment programs for visitors.

Giant cartoon marine art installations are placed across the park.

More than 100 water amusement facilities cater to visitors' entertainment demand. Mild interactive zones, including a lazy river and Caribbean Beach, suit young children and family travelers while thrilling water rides target young adult visitors.
