Digital platforms have become significant vehicles in supporting cultural expressions, thanks to the increasing prevalence of technology and ubiquitous internet access. These platforms provide a wealth of resources, such as online archives, digital databases, and social media, that allow users to easily access information about folk music, cultural events, and historical customs. This quantitative study set out to investigate the relationship between citizen participation in folk music and cultural revitalization and the frequency of digital platform usage and access to information systems. The study also sought to determine how information accessibility mediated these correlations. The study used a cross-sectional methodology and an explanatory quantitative research design to gather data from a sample of 470 individuals, comprising music students from Southeast and Shanxi. Information on the use of digital platforms, access to information systems, participation of citizens in folk music, and cultural renewal was gathered using a structured questionnaire. The data analysis found strong beneficial correlations between citizen participation and cultural renewal and the use of digital platforms. Access to information systems was also favorably linked to civic involvement and cultural renaissance. According to the mediation study, information accessibility plays a critical role in tying the use of digital platforms and access to information systems to civic involvement and cultural renaissance. This study advances academic knowledge by deepening our understanding of how technology, information accessibility, and cultural involvement interact. The results emphasize the significance of information accessibility as a crucial element in encouraging public participation in folk music and assisting cultural revitalization initiatives.
