Due to the impact of the storm No. 13, the launch of Hue Hip-hop Festival 2020 was moved to take place on the evening of November 15, instead of the evening of November 14 as planned. However, the festival had received the attention of many artists across the country who came to join in. Thousands of young audiences and visitors who are interested in hip-hop came to cheer the contestants and dance in the vibrant hip-hop music.

The festival had four competition categories, including: Hip-hop 1vs1, Popping 1vs1, freestyle 1vs1 for kid, and street dance team battle city vs city.
