On April 18, the fifth 2026 Liuyang Weekend Fireworks Show will light up the sky at Liuyang Sky Theater — and this time, it’s all about passion, dreams, and speed.
Chinese motorcycle brand Zhang Xue Motorcycles, together with riders from across the country, will gather in Liuyang to experience the energy and romance of fireworks.
Even more exciting: the event will feature a live broadcast of the World Superbike Championship (WSBK), allowing audiences to witness China’s rising moment on the global racing stage — all under a sky of fireworks.
🏁 From the Track to the Sky
On March 29, at the Algarve Circuit in Portugal, the Chinese flag was raised at the WSBK for the first time — as Zhang Xue Motorcycles, a brand founded just two years ago, claimed two championship titles, breaking a 37-year dominance by European, American, and Japanese brands.
Behind this breakthrough is Zhang Xue, a Hunan native who started as a motorcycle repair apprentice. With unwavering dedication and pure passion, he rose from grassroots beginnings to the world stage.
“I didn’t start for the result — I started for the love of it.
And sometimes, that makes all the difference.”
Now, his ambition goes even further:
“If I still have the strength and the passion, my goal is MotoGP.”
🔥 A Fireworks Story of Dreams and Breakthrough
Inspired by this journey, the April 18 fireworks show will unfold in four chapters:
Youth & Beginnings
Shifting Time & Change
Rising Determination
Breaking Through the Sky
Through “fireworks + drones” and “fireworks + multimedia art”, the show will vividly tell the story of Zhang Xue’s rise — from an unknown dreamer to a global champion.
Each burst of light becomes a brushstroke, painting a story of Chinese manufacturing stepping onto the world stage.
