Over 100 professional actors and dancers from the Hoi An Memory Island, dressed in traditional ethnic costumes, paraded through the main streets of Hoi An's old town.

Community service performances create a vibrant and lively festive atmosphere.

At the Bridge Pagoda, the parade attracted a large crowd of locals and tourists who joined in the procession.

The artists also invited locals and tourists to join the parade, with thousands of people lining up from the Japanese Bridge to the Island of Memories in Hoi An, passing through Bach Dang, Hoang Van Thu, and Hoang Dieu streets…

The parade, themed "From Hoi An to Hoi An Memories," attracted widespread interest and appreciation from locals and tourists alike with dances showcasing the unique cultural identities of each ethnic group, reflecting the cultural exchange that took place at the Hoi An trading port over its 400-year history.
