On July 31, within the framework of the Vietnam – India Business Forum held in New Delhi, Vietjet joyfully welcomed its 200 millionth passenger and announced a new flight route from Ahmedabad to Da Nang.

Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính, along with senior leaders and the business communities of both countries, congratulated Vietjet on welcoming its 200 millionth passenger and introducing a new flight route during the Prime Minister’s state visit to India.

Vietjet’s 200 millionth passenger is Indian businessman Mr. Sandeep Mehta. To honor this special occasion, Vietjet awarded him with one year of free international flights.

On this occasion, Vietjet also announced the launch of a new route connecting Ahmedabad, India’s largest city in the state of Gujarat, with Da Nang, the most livable city in Vietnam. The new route is expected to serve passengers starting October 2024.

Mỹ Tâm’s “My Soul 1981” live show at the Furama – Ariyana Danang International Toursim Complex

On July 14, 2024, Mỹ Tâm’s live show “My Soul 1981” in Da Nang was a resounding success and became an unforgettable musical event with many standout features. This was one of the most impressive musical events in the singer’s over 20-year career in her hometown of Da Nang. Let’s take a look back at the highlights of this live show:

The first and only oceanfront convention centre in Vietnam – the event’s venue:

The live show was held at the Ariyana Convention Centre Danang, which boasts the largest event complex space in Vietnam. A tea break was arranged in an elegant hall, providing a comfortable and impressive setting for guests to mingle and socialize.

The live show took place at one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, Da Nang Beach, in the area of the Ariyana Convention Centre Danang. With an outdoor event space of up to 20,000 square meters, the spacious and romantic beach setting created a unique and captivating atmosphere for the event.

More than 5,000 audiences joined the event:

The audience in Da Nang arrived early and were immersed in the sweet melodies until the very last moments of the event.

The warmest and most heartfelt moments

The special event was attended by many of Mỹ Tâm’s relatives and friends, including her parents and family. This was the first time a Mỹ Tâm live show had brought together such a large gathering of her loved ones, creating a warm, intimate, and emotionally charged atmosphere for the Da Nang-born singer.

The longest and most surprising performance

The show extended 30 minutes beyond its scheduled time, featuring many surprise acts and special songs from Mỹ Tâm’s 20-year career. This emotionally charged performance kept the audience captivated. Additionally, there was an unexpected appearance by guest singer Tăng Duy Tân, who performed a duet with Mỹ Tâm.

The most thrilling part was the unexpectedly wonderful weather.

Despite weather forecasts predicting rain and a tropical depression, the weather turned out to be much more favorable. The audience was even treated to the sight of the moon rising, creating a romantic and memorable scene.

Mỹ Tâm performed the most songs in her career during this show.

Mỹ Tâm performed 39 hit songs from her over 20-year career, ranging from familiar classics to new compositions, delighting fans of all ages. This was the first time the singer performed such a large number of songs in a single live show, providing a unique experience for her audience.

The most impressive viral marketing campaign to date

This live show also made a mark with its impressive viral marketing campaign. A hand-drawn poster of the event attracted over a million interactions and shares, creating a strong media wave and capturing the attention of a large number of fans.

Mỹ Tâm’s “My Soul 1981” live show in Da Nang was not just a concert but a pinnacle musical event, leaving many memorable moments for both Mỹ Tâm and her fans. With its many special highlights, the live show truly delighted the audience and reaffirmed Mỹ Tâm’s cherished place in the hearts of her fans.

Mr. Andre Pierre Gentzsch, General Manager of the Furama – Ariyana Danang International Tourism Complex, proudly stated: “We are delighted to have successfully organized such a grand and spectacular live music show in collaboration with singer Mỹ Tâm, her team, and related parties. Hundreds of people spent many months discussing and planning, and nearly 15 days constructing the stage and welcoming more than 5,000 attendees in a single afternoon. This event reaffirms that the Ariyana Convention Centre Danang is the epicenter of events and festivals in Vietnam.

Commenting on the potential for event tourism in Da Nang, Mr. Andre noted: “In Da Nang, with modern facilities, diverse and unique event spaces, along with the affection and support of local audiences, there is undoubtedly a tremendous incentive for artists to choose Da Nang as a destination for their shows. I hope that following singer Mỹ Tâm, many more artists will come to Da Nang, thereby illuminating Da Nang as a key destination on the festival and entertainment event map in Vietnam, and throughout Asia.”

Mr. Nguyễn Đức Quỳnh, Vice President of the Da Nang Tourism Association and Chairman of the Da Nang Hotel Association, enthusiastically expressed: “I warmly welcome artistic performance events in Da Nang, as they can attract a new segment of tourism. With the investment of the Ariyana Convention Centre Danang into its ‘Seaside Garden’ and starting with a live show by Mỹ Tâm, one of Vietnam’s top singers, Da Nang is sure to become a destination not only for domestic art programs but also for international ones.”

On the evening of July 6th, the Ariyana Convention Centre Danang had the honour of welcoming over 800 distinguished guests, including leaders from the city of Da Nang, various department representatives, organisers, and top Vietnamese artists, for the closing ceremony of the 2nd Da Nang Asian Film Festival (DANAFF II) 2024, under the theme ‘Bridging Asia.’

DANAFF Continues to Enhance Its Professionalism

Speaking at the closing ceremony of DANAFF II, Mr. Trần Chí Cường, Vice Chairman of the Da Nang People’s Committee, stated that DANAFF II, with the theme “Bridging Asia,” brought a vibrant and colorful week of cinema to Da Nang. This marks the second time Da Nang has successfully hosted an international film event. Throughout the week of DANAFF II, a wide range of activities took place, including public film screenings at various theaters, outdoor movie showings, film crew meet-and-greets, artist interactions, and international workshops and seminars. Notably, for the first time in Vietnam, DANAFF II presented a Lifetime Achievement Award to an outstanding filmmaker, Director – People’s Artist Đặng Nhật Minh. “All these activities have left a positive impression on a wide audience, including students, film professionals, and experts in the field,” Mr. Trần Chí Cường expressed.

Dr. Ngô Phương Lan, Chairwoman of the Vietnam Film Development Association (VFDA), Co-Head of the Organizing Committee, and Director of DANAFF, highly praised the professionalism in organizing DANAFF II. She remarked that all events and activities at DANAFF II created a vibrant, harmonious, youthful, and lively symphony that was surely felt by the distinguished guests, artists, filmmakers, and audience.

According to Dr. Ngô Phương Lan, the success of DANAFF II was attributed to the enthusiastic participation of 800 guests and delegates, including nearly 80 international delegates, over 100 journalists and editors from various media outlets, more than 100 volunteers, and tens of thousands of audience members. Additionally, the dedication and hard work of more than 100 members of the Organizing Committee, Subcommittees, and hundreds of others who supported the festival day and night contributed to the event’s success. “We ask that you continue to place your trust in us so that future DANAFF editions will be larger and more professional, helping to develop Vietnam’s film industry and soon position Da Nang—a city strong in creative content and festivals—within UNESCO’s network of creative cities,” Dr. Ngô Phương Lan expressed as a goal for future editions of DANAFF.

The Furama – Ariyana Da Nang International Tourism Complex was honored to be the main venue hosting the esteemed jury members, renowned artists, and serving as the location for the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, as well as various activities and conferences throughout the event.
