It will be the 15th year the festival has been held, kicking off the summer tourism season of Ha Long city and other localities in the province with cultural, art, sport and tourism activities, said Vice Chairman of the Ha Long municipal People’s Committee and deputy head of the organizing board Nguyen Ngoc Son on Tuesday.
The carnival will comprise four parts, including an opening ceremony, stage performances, a street dance parade, and culminating in the fireworks.
Son said the organizing board plans to invite famous singers, dance troupes, beauty queens, professional artists, folk artisans and nearly 2,000 performers to the event. The carnival will be a story structured by historical, artistic, legendary, open and natural elements, reflecting that Ha Long is a place where the best things converge, deserving to be the top destination in Asia.
