4th Macao International Queer Film Festival (MIQFF26)

Embark on a journey through history with “Silk Roads Beyond Borders” at POLY MGM MUSEUM, L2, MGM MACAU, running from October 2025 to August 2026, with free admission. This extraordinary exhibition invites visitors to explore the cultural legacy of the ancient Silk Road, where civilizations across Eurasia connected through trade, art, and ideas.

Presented across four thematic chapters, the exhibition traces the pioneering routes that shaped early exchanges, the artistic brilliance that emerged from cross-cultural encounters, and the enduring spirit of the Silk Road that continues to influence the present.

Featuring over 200 rare and significant artifacts, the collection spans from the Western Zhou Dynasty to contemporary works, including silk textiles, ceramics, bronzes, Buddhist sculptures, calligraphy, and modern art.

Enhancing the experience are immersive digital installations that guide visitors along historic trade routes, alongside audio guides available in Cantonese, English, and Mandarin. Daily guided tours are held at 3 PM and 4 PM, offering deeper insight into the exhibits, making each visit both educational and engaging across generations.
