Free tickets on offer for art shows at Hue Festival 2022
Update: Jun 16, 2022
The organising board of Hue Festival 2022 have made the decision to not sell tickets for art shows during the upcoming Hue Festival 2022 as it aims to stimulate tourism demand moving into the post-COVID-19 pandemic.

A wide range of art performances are held during Hue Festival 2022

The organisers have assessed that Hue Festival 2022 offers a prime opportunity to revive the festive atmosphere of the area, as well as promoting cultural activities in the locality.

The move will therefore help both visitors and residents to enjoy art shows featuring domestic and international art troupes free of charge, while simultaneously rebooting the local tourism industry and boosting socio-economic development.

A wide range of activities will transpire throughout the duration of the function, including antique an car parade, the "Hue City - Four seasons of flower" event, an folk art programme, as well as artistic performances showcasing Hue kites.

Furthermore, residents and visitors will be given the opportunity to enjoy a range of art performances put on by domestic and international art troupes from 19:30 p.m. to 22:00 p.m. from June 26 to June 29 with performances on the stage of the Imperical Academy (Quoc Tu Giam) and Bia Quoc Hoc (Quoc Hoc) monument.
