Situation during Special Events in 2025

• During the Commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of the Victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War: On September 3, 2025, during the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, tent-style toilets were set up in crowded areas such as the east side of the Great Hall of the People and the west side of the National Museum of China. The tent-style temporary toilets in the Tiananmen area have been upgraded and renovated. Not only have barrier-free toilets been added to facilitate the use of special groups such as the disabled, but the levels of privacy protection and odor control have also been improved, greatly enhancing the user experience and reflecting attention to the needs of different groups and higher requirements for the sanitary environment.
• During the 2025 Beijing Marathon: During the 2025 Beijing Marathon, many more toilets were added on the east side of Tiananmen, with the number of toilet stalls increasing from the original 765 to 1,119. The increase in the number of toilet stalls is to meet the toilet needs of a large number of participants and spectators during the marathon, avoid long queues, and ensure the smooth progress of the event.
