Mornings offer spring-themed music and dance by the Vietnam National Music Song and Dance Theatre. Afternoons the Vietnam Puppet Theatre and the Vietnam Circus Federation perform dance, circus, and magic shows. Evenings feature performances by the Vietnam Youth Theatre and combined circus acts.
A highlight is the Bac Ninh Quan Ho folk singing in a setting inspired by the ancient Kinh Bac region, the cradle of the UNSECO recognized Quan Ho. Duong Duc Thang, Vice Head of the Hoai Trung Club in Bac Ninh, said, "the 12-member troupe, which includes 10 performers, will present Quan Ho performances from February 2 to 13. We aim to bring our folk songs to a wider audience."
The fair’s mixture of traditional and modern art forms in a festive setting is designed to keep the public entertained throughout the Lunar New Year holiday.
