The Pingyuan Boat Lamp Dance is a Hakka folklore activity with the land boat as a carrier and mixed with folk tunes, folk dances and folk stories as the core content. With the development of society, the communication form of Pingyuan Boat Lamp Dance culture has also proactively shifted to the digital media communication. In this process, the inheritance and development of Pingyuan Boat Lamp Dance culture has been constantly keeping close to the public's aesthetics, which promotes the contemporary continuation of Pingyuan boat lamp dance culture. However, Pingyuan Boat Lamp Dance culture is limited by the realistic dilemma of imperfect construction of digital platform, poor utilization of digital communication media and incomplete transformation of digital communication, which leads to the inability to fully convey Hakka culture, regional culture and folk culture to the audience with the help of digital media communication, and it is difficult to achieve the dilemma of"use and satisfaction".
