Recently, I was often asked, in a sympathetic way, by my long-distance friends: “No fireworks festival this year in Da Nang, you must be unhappy?”

Surely we are, Da Nang Fireworks Festival has left a deep impression about cultural and tourism event on tourists’ mind. The glorious feast of light and sound has been the brand and pride of Da Nang, a magnet for travelers. As the pandemic situation has been still complicated, Da Nang leaders made a firm decision to cancel the fireworks festival for this year. In spite of that, it is still an eventful city as there will be many other exciting summer festivals, outstanding sporting events and attractive tourism stimulus programs, waiting for visitors to explore.

Excited with featured cultural festivals and art performances

As an extended program based on the annual Da Nang – Summer Rendezvous in June, the “Fantastic Da Nang Festival 2020” promises to be a highlight of the city tourism stimulus program when the Covid-19 outbreak is under control and contribute to promoting Da Nang as a destination with new and unique tourist products and revive the love of tourists for the famous coastal city in the Central Vietnam.

The highlights will include: EDM Music Festival with the theme “Awakening Summer”, bikini flash mob performance “Blue Sea Calling”; installation art on the beach where you can “check-in” with the theme “Reborn on the sand”, Vietnamese food festival, coconut boat race, coastal area festival, etc.

Besides, “Street Music” and “Street Dance” performance will provide citizens and visitors with a lively atmosphere of music exchanges at weekends. The art performances will take place at 7.30 pm every Saturdays and Sundays at An Thuong Zone and last for 90 minutes.

The “Street music” is filled with varieties of genre from famous international songs performed by Vietnamese instruments to local folk music performances (Northwest folklore, Quan Ho of Bac Ninh, Bai Choi singing, Champa Music, Southern amateur music, etc) and drum dance performance on EDM music or other types such as Acoustic, Beatbox and folk dances. The “Street Dance” performance is the perfect combination of music and dance with dancers in carnival costumes in Vietnamese and international songs. All will be in harmony to bring to visitors an unforgettable experience.

Energized with remarkable sporting events

Two outstanding sport events that made Da Nang summer widely known are still sustained and expected to attract a great number of domestic tourists this year. It is a fact that after the pandemic, the habit of daily exercise and the demand for fitness have been paid more attention. The combination of recreation, relaxation and participation in high-profile sports events is definitely a great option for any lover of both traveling and sports.
