Vice-chairman of the Khanh Hoa People’s Committee Dinh Van Thieu said on Wednesday that the province would organize an international drone light contest within the framework of the Nha Trang Beach Tourism Festival in June 2024.
As per a proposal made by the provincial Department of Tourism and other relevant units, the competition will feature the participation of up to eight teams from China, South Korea, India, and Vietnam.
Drone light shows will take place on the beaches in Nha Trang and Cam Ranh on four Friday evenings during the festival.
Each show will last 15 minutes.
The idea of incorporating a drone light show contest into the province’s tourism brand follows in the footsteps of successful drone light performances at the Nha Trang – Khanh Hoa beach festival 2023, from June 3 to 6, said the provincial department.
Over 1,650 drones lit up the sky over Nha Trang Bay during the 2023 festival, drawing attention from millions of people in Vietnam and abroad.
The drone light show was one of the highlights of this year’s festival in Khanh Hoa Province, and was a new program within the event.
The international drone light competition is expected to contribute to diversifying Khanh Hoa’s tourism products and attracting more travelers to the south-central province.
