Authorities have allocated approximately VND14 billion (roughly US$700,000) to organizing and hosting the 2014 Hue Festival, this year themed “Cultural Heritage with Integration and Development”.
The festival is expected to feature art troupes from more than 30 countries around the world.
Local artists and performances will showcase music and dance from Vietnam’s diverse regional traditions, including Hue’s famous royal court music and traditional songs.
The Hue Royal Complex’s Dai Noi (Mandarin's House) and An Dinh Palace will host key festival events, but sideshows and celebrations are planned for a variety of Thua Thien-Hue localities.
Hospitals and factories will hold their own events for workers and residents unable to attend the main festivities.
Thua Thien-Hue Provincial People’s Committee Vice Chairperson and Hue Festival Organising Board member Ngo Hoa explained the festival aims to honour and preserve Hue Imperial City’s unique cultural and historical traditions.
