The highest concentration of robots in a Spring Festival Gala, they performed on stage.

The 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala featured the highest density of robots. Four robot manufacturers partnered with the CCTV Gala and showcased their robots through sketches, martial arts, songs and dances, and New Year's microfilms. At the main venue, six MagicBot Z1 humanoid robots and two MagicBot Gen1 robots performed with artists such as Jackson Yee and Jerry Yan. In the Yibin sub-venue, hundreds of four-legged MagicDog robots presented a large-scale group performance in the shape of "national treasure pandas". The sketch "Grandma's Favorite" by Songyan Power featured humanoid robots for the first time in a language-based program at the Spring Festival Gala, with their products N2, E1, Little Bumi, and actor Cai Ming's humanoid robots all taking the stage.
