The 2025 International Bruce Lee Fans Convention kicked off on Thursday in Shunde district of Foshan, Guangdong province.

For the first time, the three-day event includes a kung fu workshop. The event combines Shunde kung fu and local cuisines for a unique Foshan celebration.

Alongside the workshop will be the Mars Martial Championship, China's top combat sports tournament.

"Driven by the events, the convention will showcase kung fu aesthetics and promote the full-chain upgrading of Shunde's cultural and tourism industry through the 'Kung fu + Cuisine + Tourism' model," organizers said.

The events also include an international academic forum, a martial arts and music night, and Shunde-themed kung fu tours.
