The Vietnam-Japan festival 2024 will take place at the Bien Dong (East Sea) Park in the central city of Da Nang from July 4 to 7, as part of celebrations to mark 51 years of diplomatic ties between the two countries.

A wide range of activities will be organised within the framework of the festival to increase mutual understanding and cultural exchanges between both sides, according to Le Thu Hanh, deputy director of the Da Nang Department of Foreign Affairs.

An exhibition on Vietnam-Japan cooperation achievements and an exhibition on children's paintings of Japanese localities that have cooperative relations with Da Nang, such as Kanagawa prefecture, Sakai city, Kisarazu city, Mimasaka city, and Mitsuke city, will also be held.

Highlights of the festival will include 80 booths introducing Vietnamese and Japanese cultures; traditional dishes; and information about education, study, tourism, and trade.

A conference on promoting Japanese tourism in Da Nang and an information festive day about studying in Japan will also get underway.

Art performance shows put on by Vietnamese and Japanese artists will be held in four nights. Famous Hip Hop band Kawakado from Japan are expected to bring unforgettable memories to audiences.

Notably, a workshop will be held to examine Da Nang-Japan cooperation in fields such as digital technology, green technology, information technology, microchips, semiconductors, and human resources training.

This year’s festival will offer an opportunity for locals and tourists to watch Japanese sports games such as baseball, wrestling and football, along with an exchange of traditional folk dances and an introduction of Japanese tea-making arts.

The festival will jointly be organised by the municipal Department of Foreign Affairs, the Japanese Consulate General in Da Nang, and administrations of Japanese localities.

The festival has been held eight times since it was first launched in 2014. Each year it has attracted more than 35,000 visitors, leaving a positive impression on Vietnamese citizens and Japanese friends.
