Around 40 groups of artists from 29 countries and territories have registered to perform at the Hue Festival 2010 under the theme “Cultural heritage with integration and development” to be held in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue from June 5-13.
The focal point of this year’s festival will be the charming Dai Noi (Royal Palace) in the evenings with many interesting banquets and games. Besides the Royal Palace and An Dinh Forbidden Palace, a number of places in the city, the surrounding parks and tourist attractions will see many festivities, with daily performances of folk’s games and food available in most of the streets.
Along with various cultural shows from overseas artists, the festival will revitalise some unique royal traditions like the Xa Tac Platform Ritual, the Royal Night and the Discovery of the Huong (Perfume) River’s Legend.
To mark Lord Nguyen Phuc Lan’s choice of Hue as the country’s former imperial city, festival organisers will stage a special programme depicting local people’s journey to reclaim the southern land and military maneuver in the past.
