The 2nd World Culture Festival in Hanoi will conclude with a closing art performance at 8 PM on October 4th at Thang Long Imperial Citadel .
The program was structured into three chapters: "Colors Converging," "Vietnam - A Living Heritage Land," and "Holding Hands Towards the Future." Through art, the closing ceremony conveyed a message about exchange, sharing, respect for differences, and strengthening connections between cultures.
According to Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Ta Quang Dong, the performances by Vietnamese artists at the closing ceremony were selected to both promote traditional values and showcase creativity, connecting with contemporary artistic language. Through this, the program contributes to introducing an image of Vietnam that is rich in identity, dynamic, has a long-standing cultural tradition, and is actively integrating into the international community.
Deputy Minister Ta Quang Dong noted that the units need to ensure the overarching message of the program, in which the Festival must be presented as a space for meeting, sharing, and enhancing understanding between cultures.
In particular, the closing segment is expected to create lasting impressions and demonstrate a spirit of connection after the festival concludes. Meetings and exchanges between artists, performing arts groups, and the public are anticipated to open up further opportunities for cultural cooperation between Vietnam and other countries in the future.
Concluding four days of cultural festivities, the closing ceremony was not only an artistic highlight of the 2nd World Cultural Festival in Hanoi but also conveyed a message of companionship, respect for differences, and a shared vision for the future.
