The Rimai Festival (Qiang calendar year) is also called "Qiang calendar new year", "small new year", "harvest festival", etc. It is a grand festival of the Qiang people. The activities are mainly about celebrating the harvest, sending blessings, and praying for peace. It is mainly popular in the vast Qiang ethnic group settlements in 23 towns in Maoxian County, Sichuan Province, and also in the Qiang ethnic distribution areas such as Wenchuan County, Li County, Songpan County, Beichuan Qiang Autonomous County, etc. The Rimai Festival is named after the Qiang Pingyang calendar. It is generally celebrated on the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar and lasts for three to five days. From the content point of view, this Qiang New Year activity mainly reflects the status of the early farming culture of the Qiang people, but from the expression method, there are still many nomadic, hunting culture and animism relics. Whenever the Qiang New Year comes, each village will hold a grand celebration under the auspices of the respected elders. Men, women, old and young formed a circle on the lawn, singing and dancing, commonly known as "jumping the festive shalang", and then drinking wine, exchanging delicious food, celebrating the new year, and reveling until late at night. Qiang New Year is a precious cultural heritage of the Qiang people. It integrates faith, history, singing and dancing, and food. The festival activities reflect the Qiang people's national personality of worshipping nature and ancestors, and have research value in ethnology, folklore, sociology, history, culture and other aspects.
