Hanoi National Concert expected to draw 50,000 spectators
VOV.VN - A national concert titled “Muôn sắc Việt Nam” (Vietnam in All Its Colours) is set to take place at My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi on November 24, with around 50,000 spectators expected to attend a programme that will blend traditional and contemporary arts with modern stage technology.
The special arts programme, a highlight of activities marking Vietnam Culture Day on November 24, 2026, is scheduled to begin at 8pm at My Dinh National Stadium, and will run for up to 120 minutes, according to a plan issued by the Hanoi People's Committee.
The show aims to trace the evolution of Vietnamese culture from its origins to the present and future, connecting traditional heritage values with contemporary creativity. Traditional Vietnamese art forms will be combined with modern stage technology and interspersed fireworks displays to create a distinctive cultural experience for audiences.
The event is being organised in coordination with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and other relevant agencies and organisations. The Ministry of National Defence plans to mobilise 200 soldiers to take part in performances, while the Ministry of Public Security will deploy 300 People’s Police cadets for a ceremonial drum performance, adding to the highlights of the show.
More than 38,000 free tickets are expected to be made available to the public. Of these, 10,500 will be allocated to residents in 19 wards across Hanoi, while 7,000 will be distributed through online platforms. The remaining tickets will go to agencies, organisations and forces involved in the programme.
The programme will be broadcast live on Vietnam Television (VTV). Hanoi's newspaper and radio and television agency will relay the broadcast on its channels and platforms, while LED screens will also be installed in areas farther from the city centre to enable more residents to watch performances.
Beyond being a large-scale performance, “Muôn sắc Việt Nam” is to celebrate cultural values shaped over thousands of years of history and promote patriotism, national solidarity and cultural identity. The programme will also help link Vietnam Culture Day on November 24 with National Unity Day on November 18, bringing cultural values closer to the public.
