On April 30, 2025 - the 50th anniversary of the country's reunification, the coastal city of Dong Hoi held a special cultural and musical event called Legend Fest 2025 In Dong Hoi , marking the first time Quang Binh had a national-scale music festival, held right in the heart of the coastal urban area Regal Legend . Legend Fest has become a convergence point of art, community spirit and national pride - where music connects people, clearly affirming that: Culture can be created as an indispensable part of modern life.
A great music festival in the middle of the Central region
From late afternoon, the atmosphere before the show at Regal Legend gradually became more bustling with people pouring in from everywhere - footsteps carrying excitement, red shirts, small flags carried in backpacks, light sticks gradually glowing in the sunset stretching across Bao Ninh beach. Never before has an event in Quang Binh attracted such a large number of locals and visitors from all over - and then when the stage lights turned on, more than 10,000 spectators joined in an explosive yet emotional musical space.
Legend Fest does not follow the usual "entertainment concert" model, but is staged with a storytelling spirit - an emotional journey through many slices of modern Vietnamese music. The artists appear not simply to perform, but to contribute to a colorful picture, sometimes strong and vibrant, sometimes soulful and lyrical. From the captivating appearance of Vu Phung Tien - opening with songs imbued with Gen Z, a fresh indie style, and Quang Hung MasterD with pop-R&B nuances imbued with modern Asian style - all have opened up a youthful, liberal and vibrant musical space. Captain Boy was almost the last surprise, announced late, but also created a space that captivated the audience in his own way on Bao Ninh beach.
The stage gradually changed gears, when Chi Pu appeared with the dance troupe in a visually stunning performance, combining sound - light - artistic movement. Meanwhile, Orange and Quan AP brought emotional, profound moments, making the audience feel like they were taking a break after the emotional climaxes. And then, when Isaac sang with modern arrangements, the audience continued to immerse themselves in the layers of music imbued with the era - where pop, R&B, and a little electronica subtly harmonized.
The climax of the night did not come from a specific performance, but from the moment when everyone fell silent: when the lights dimmed, a solemn harmony rose and a giant red flag with a yellow star – 20x30 meters – was stretched across the sea of people. Tung Duong – with his powerful and emotional voice – appeared as the main heartbeat of the stage, singing out national pride in a special arrangement of Mot vong Viet Nam with Isaac, Orange, and Vu Phung Tien. Before that, he also performed Quang Binh, my hometown , and Chiec khan Pieu , the powerful and poignant hit Tai sinh . Then came the impressive and brilliant image of fireworks in the sky of Dong Hoi that made thousands of spectators unable to take their eyes off. No script could write such real emotions: the elderly, the young, local audiences, tourists from all over, all sang in unison, raised high the small flag, the flash lights merged into a sea of bright red light under the sky of Dong Hoi.
Not just a music festival, Legend Fest 2025 has truly touched the depths of culture, when emotions lie beyond the pomp, but in the harmony, not in the scale but in the moment when people stand side by side - listening, singing and being proud to be Vietnamese. The program also has the participation of famous DJs such as Trang Moon, DJ FWIN, combined with the charming and exciting hosting of MC Vinh Phu - contributing to shaping Legend Fest as a program with high artistic quality, meticulous from the organization to the emotions of the listeners. It can be said that the most emotional moment is the "Key Moment of the Flag" - when the giant national flag measuring 20x30m was stretched across the audience area of the festival, as a profound artistic and cultural declaration commemorating the 50th anniversary of the country's reunification. Thousands of audiences sang in unison and raised the national flag high, creating a resonant image full of pride and emotion.
Art is not just for listening – it is the lifeblood of the community
What makes Legend Fest 2025 special is not only the "burning" stage but also the way this event becomes a connecting station between art - community - society - local tourism. For the first time, the people of Dong Hoi - Quang Binh witnessed a music festival on a scale equal to events in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, with a well-organized quality, electronic ticket system, identification bracelets, professional security - medical flow. Thousands of young people in Quang Binh learned about the culture of "buying tickets to watch music" for the first time, instead of the familiar free events.
In addition to attracting a large number of locals, Legend Fest welcomed more than 5,000 audiences who were tourists from other provinces, many of whom booked flights and rooms months in advance to experience the festival. The event created a stimulus for tourism consumption in the entire Dong Hoi - Bao Ninh region: from hotels, restaurants, taxis, entertainment services, to local media. According to estimates, the total number of people accessing Legend Fest-related content on online platforms such as Facebook, TikTok, Threads has exceeded 45 million, with tens of thousands of shares and mentions from the online community. Therefore, going beyond the scope of a simple music night - Legend Fest 2025 is a journey to change cultural consumption thinking, activate entertainment life, and spread a new lifestyle: Art is a part of life.
