The International Dance Festival 2024 is being organized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in collaboration with the Thua Thien Hue Provincial People's Committee, from August 17 to 22 at the Thua Thien Hue Cultural and Cinematic Center (41A Hung Vuong Street, Hue City).
The International Dance Festival 2024 brings together nearly 500 artists and performers representing 9 countries, including: the Lao People's Democratic Republic, the Republic of the Philippines, the People's Republic of China, the Republic of India, the Republic of Indonesia, the Kingdom of Cambodia, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, and the host country, Vietnam.
With the message “Gathering, Creativity - Shining Together”, the festival aims to foster the cooperation, exchange, learning, and sharing of experiences between leading dance art units of Vietnam and other countries around the world. At the same time, this is also a chance to promote the socio-economic potential and strength, as well as the scenic spots, and the historical and cultural relics of Thua Thien Hue Province to domestic and international friends.
