Ready for the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival season

On May 24, Mr. Tran Xuan Hung, team leader in charge of the fireworks stage construction team for the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival - DIFF 2023, said that the construction of the stage structure has reached 95%, only the remaining decoration needs to be completed for load testing and acceptance for use.

The area of this year's DIFF stage is 1,050 m2, located on the east bank of the Han River - the riverside campus of Tran Hung Dao Street. The total length of the stage is 62m, 22m wide. This year's grandstand has a capacity of more than 5,000 seats, with 3 subdivisions with 8 areas, a total area of about 9,500 m2.

Stage construction work has reached 95%.

To ensure the requirements set by the stage design department, the construction team created a specially designed hydraulic lifting system with an automated mechanism. The stage structure was constructed partly over the river and partly on the shore, so the design and construction work required high precision.

Talking about the special features of the DIFF 2023 stage compared to previous years, Mr. Hung added: “In addition to the special design with one part on the shore and one part extending out to the river, this year's stage has a lifting light frame and modern LED laser effect technology, which can be raised and lowered at an angle of 87 degrees, to provide the best views of the entire fireworks area.”

Mr. Le Trung Chinh, Chairman of the People's Committee of Da Nang City, after a survey, visit and encouragement of the DIFF stage construction team on the afternoon of May 19, said that all preparations were ready: "After 3 years of not organizing DIFF, the city will certainly encounter certain difficulties, but thanks to the city's determination, up to this point all preparations are ready. I think everything will ensure the proposed plan. Hopefully the opening night on June 2 will take place successfully."

In terms of decoration, the DIFF 2023 stage will have a modern and spacious style to maximize the brilliant night scene of the Han River city. The focal point on the stage is a location stamp, conveying the message that Da Nang City is a global convergence point, igniting the vitality and solidarity of 5 continents, overcoming difficulties and challenges after the pandemic.

The stage art cluster is a unique design idea, depicting the bright fireworks streaks in the sky, which also symbolizes the 5 lines on the music score. In addition, the DIFF 2023 stage also integrates a magnificent water music section, combined with the sparkling Han River behind, creating a special visual effect for the audience to watch on-site and via live television.

The opening ceremony of DIFF 2023 brings together more than 180 artists from 25 countries around the world , including the participation of leading Vietnamese artists... The audience will enjoy songs praising the beauty of Vietnam, welcoming Da Nang - "Asia's leading festival event destination", along with classic international songs, conveying meaningful messages about love and peace.
