A total of 22 local and foreign contestants have been selected to take part in the semifinals of the competition to be held in Quang Ninh province between July 26 and July 29. The awards ceremony will take place on the evening of July 28.
The contest will be open to professional singers with the aim of boosting knowledge about the culture and tourism of the countries involved in the event, whilst also providing a platform for young talents in the music industry.
It will be broadcast live on radio channels VOV3 and VOV5 and on television channels VTC1 and Vietnam Journey.
Representatives from Quang Ninh have committed to publicising the event at locations throughout the city’s centre, whilst also promising to ensure services, medical facilities, security, and transportation for the event.
