BEsties pop-up on Yongyuan Road
Blue Erdos started a six-month BEsties slow pop-up on 10 October 2026, combining cashmere with sound art. Shanghai Fashion Weekend itself closed on 25 October; this is the longer-running activity from the same programme.
Confirm the exact address and opening hours before travelling. The source does not state prices or whether booking is needed.
Estelle Hanania's photography exhibition We Deem We Dream runs 14 October – 14 November 2026 at Museum of Art Pudong, showing dancers in rehearsal and performance.
Check the museum's own page for opening hours and ticketing; this listing does not claim free entry. Photography rules inside the galleries are set by the museum.
The Grand Yuyuan Music & Heritage Festival runs until 30 November 2026 at Yuyuan Tourist Mart and BFC.
The official notice says the water stage near the Zigzag Bridge hosts free traditional music performances on Saturdays, with no booking required. That does not mean every festival event or Yu Garden admission is free — check each programme separately.
Shanghai's official November calendar lists exhibitions, theatre, concerts and livehouse gigs across the city. The individual programme details sit in the source poster, so check times, language and ticketing with each organiser before booking.
Open the official calendar, pick a listing, then check the venue or organiser page for start times, whether a performance is in Chinese or English, and how tickets are sold. Listings can change, so treat the calendar as a starting point rather than a confirmed booking.
The China International Import Expo runs 5–10 November 2026. The bilingual CIIE Transportation Services Zone in the Suishenxing app and WeChat mini program covers parking, shuttle buses and pick-up and drop-off points.
Transport booking inside the app is not an exhibitor or visitor pass for the expo. Check the dynamic notices before you set out, and allow extra time around the venue on show days.
The same official transport plan lists four hotel shuttle routes linking 56 hotels. Whether your hotel is included depends on the published route map, so check that before you book.
Confirm that your hotel appears on a route, then note the exact stop and departure times for your dates. No room rates or availability are stated here — those come from the hotel and its booking channel.
The Unbounded Food Carnival brings a dessert programme to the Xujiahui commercial area on 6–8 November 2026. The official fourth-quarter Global Taste guide also lists more than 100 food and beverage venues.
Confirm the exact venue and any set-menu terms with the organiser. No prices have been verified for this listing.
An official FAQ separates employee medical insurance for foreign residents from resident medical insurance for those who qualify. Living in Shanghai does not automatically make you eligible.
Unemployed permanent residents and some family members of overseas talent are assessed under the stated rules. This is general guidance, not an individual eligibility decision or a reimbursement promise. Confirm your hospital’s insurance and settlement arrangements before a planned visit.
Article 16 of the Shanghai housing rental regulations lists the terms a contract should cover, including rent, deposit, repairs, utility charges and dispute handling. Article 19 requires the landlord to show identity and ownership documents.
The regulation was adopted in 2022 and amended on 26 November 2025; it is not a new November 2026 policy. Read the contract before paying, keep receipts, and ask a qualified adviser about disputes.
The municipal government scholarship for international students has two tracks: Category A covers tuition, accommodation, living costs and comprehensive medical insurance; Category B covers tuition and comprehensive medical insurance.
Applications usually run between February and April, but each university sets its own window. Nothing here says the 2027 round is open. Check your target university’s international office for the current call and required documents.
