Hanoi Creative Design Festival: Inspiring innovation and sustainable development

The Hanoi Creative Design Festival 2024 is considered a colorful "party", becoming a place for interaction and connection between creative practitioners, artists, designers, experts and the community.

People in the capital visit and experience the Creative Design Festival.

On the evening of November 17, the Hanoi Creative Design Festival 2024 "Creative Intersection" ended with unexpected success, leaving an impression in the hearts of the capital's people and tourists.

Speaking at the final program of the Festival at the stage at the intersection of Dinh Tien Hoang and Hang Khay streets, Director of the Hanoi Department of Culture and Sports Do Dinh Hong said that with more than 110 main activities and resonant programs organized throughout the Festival, the event was highly appreciated by many people, the creative community, and domestic and foreign visitors.

The festival is likened to a colorful “party”, becoming a place for creative practitioners, artists, designers, experts and the community to meet and connect. “The most meaningful value that the festival brings is to form new awareness for people about creativity as well as about culture, history and architecture through experiential activities, interacting with heritage, and participating in community activities,” Mr. Do Dinh Hong emphasized.

The influence of the Hanoi Creative Design Festival 2024 is not only on young people but also on the elderly and children. Across social media forums, press and media channels, the activities are assessed to be of high professional quality, operated professionally and safely, creating rich and inspiring experiences for the community.

The massive participation of the capital's people and tourists has turned the Festival into a creative cultural event with profound community significance, strongly inspiring innovation, creativity and sustainable development.

In the program on the evening of November 17, delegates, people and tourists enjoyed impressive and unique performances. Previously, within the framework of the Festival, on the afternoon of November 17, nearly 500 people participated in the fourth "Bach Hoa Bi Hanh" Vietnamese Costume Festival. The parade started from the National History Museum, passed the Opera House, August Revolution Square and entered the Hoan Kiem Lake walking space.

The activity aims to introduce and honor the beauty of Vietnamese traditional costumes, helping the audience learn more about the unique cultural features of Vietnamese traditional costumes through the ages such as Ao Dai, Ao Tac, Ao Giao Linh, Ao Nhat Binh...

According to the Organizing Committee, after 9 days of organization, the Festival welcomed more than 300,000 visitors to participate and experience at the main routes; in which, on weekends, the Festival welcomed nearly 60,000 people/day at the entrance points, not to mention the open spaces. People and tourists patiently lined up, eagerly waiting to visit. With three pillars of design-creativity-community, at the Hanoi Creative Design Festival 2024, the community has become the subject of the Festival. They not only come to visit and experience but also interact and join in the activities and events.

This year’s festival has created conditions for travel agencies to pilot the sale of ready-made “Creative Tours”, recording thousands of online payments every day. Testing the application of technology to help the public proactively choose, hire “travel assistants” and design their own tours has also attracted the public, especially foreign tourists.

Creative experts have experimented with leading “curator tours,” “architect tours,” and “artist tours” to help maximize information access for audiences.

The pilot exhibition of creative design ideas at the Exhibition House at 93 Dinh Tien Hoang also received a positive response from the community. Ideas from individuals, businesses, and organizations practicing creativity across the country were displayed, turning the exhibition into a place to share and encourage the spirit of creative courage; at the same time, aiming to connect support resources (sponsors, potential investors...) to bring creative initiatives into real life.

These are new features that create differences, increase the attractiveness and success of the Festival, suggest many directions for exploiting new products and services, contributing to promoting the development of Hanoi's creative economy .

These successful pilots also open up conditions to prepare for the launch of the Hanoi Creative Activities Coordination Center in the near future./.
