Friday to Monday: Animation festival
All weekend and Monday the Third Yunnan/Kunming Cartoon and Animation Festival (第三届云南·昆明动漫节) will be taking place at the Yunnan Provincial Science and Technology Hall next to Green Lake and the 2010 Yunnan Animation and Creative Arts Fair (2010云南动漫创意艺术节) will be held at the Kunming International Convention and Exhibition Center near the airport.
There is no word on why the two seemingly related events are taking place at the same time but in different locations and with no apparent mutual coordination. Each one is open daily from 9 to 5pm with an unknown entry fee at the former and a 30 yuan entry fee at the latter.
