Artists nationwide will gather to celebrate the seventh festival of the traditional Then singing and Tinh musical instrument of the Tay, Nung, and Thai ethnic groups, which will take place from November 15 to November 17 in the Vietnam National Village for Ethnic Culture and Tourism on the outskirts of Hanoi.

The festival aims to promote unique forms of art practiced by ethnic minority groups in the northwest of the country to both domestic and international visitors.

Many artists who are Tay, Nung, and Thai ethnic people living and working in 15 cities and provinces, namely Hanoi, Lang Son, Tuyen Quang, Bac Kan, Cao Bang, Ha Giang, Lao Cai, and Lam Dong, will be present at the event.

During the course of the three-day function a wide range of activities will be organised, such as the opening ceremony; performances of Then singing; an exhibition on ethnic costumes and handicraft products of Then, Tay, and Nung ethnic groups; a trade fair displaying One Product One Commune (OCOP) products from the northwest of the nation; and a closing ceremony for the festival.

Artisans will also introduce processes of making Tinh musical instruments to help local and foreign visitors understand more about ethnic musical instruments.

Furthermore, a photo exhibition showcasing the cultural heritage values of Then singing and Tinh musical instruments, along with the screening of a documentary on Then singing practices of Vietnamese ethnic groups which was named in the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on December 13, 2019, by UNESCO will be held.
