This is a pilot model to develop the nighttime economy in Da Nang, which is implemented within the framework of cooperation between the municipal People's Committee and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Viet Nam.

The event will bring together guests from all the three regions of the country in a series of activities for young people including Hiphop and Kpop Cover contests, a DJ show, and Flashmob dance.

The beauty of nature, culture and people of Da Nang and its nightlife will be spotlighted in a visual show using “Augmented Reality” technology.

City Lab, the Da Nang Institute for Socio-Economic Development (DISED) and the Da Nang Entrepreneurship Support (DNES) will co-host the programme under the sponsorship of the UNDP Viet Nam and the Australian Aid.

The city's authorities have also planned a variety of new tourism activities and events to boost travel demand and revive the smoke-free industry, which has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic.
