Gia Lai: Promising an explosion of emotions on the opening night of the National Tourism Year 2026.

The opening ceremony of the National Tourism Year 2026 - "The Great Forest Touches the Blue Sea" took place at Nguyen Tat Thanh Square.

Accordingly, the opening ceremony of the National Tourism Year - Gia Lai 2026 was staged as a large-scale live performance comprising four artistic acts, recreating a journey connecting the vast forests to the blue sea. Through the language of the stage, music, dance, and visual effects, the program depicted the unique cultural and historical landscape of Gia Lai.

"The vast forests touch the blue sea" is not just a geographical intersection. It is the meeting of the spiritual energy of the mountains and forests and the breath of the ocean; a journey from the majestic highlands to the poetic coastal region; a place where the sound of gongs connects the land of literature with the land of martial arts; and a bridge connecting the glorious past with a wide-open future. The combination of the wildlife of the vast forests "touching" the vibrant colors of the ocean creates a harmonious beauty of nature. The intermingling of culture and people opens a new era of beauty, integration, modernity, and development.

The art program features performances rich in symbolism representing the origins of life and the aspiration for development. The atmosphere of the Central Highlands' gongs blends with the spirit of the vast forests and the heroic spirit of the Tay Son dynasty, expressed through powerful performances that honor the heroic traditions of this "land of martial arts."

When the vast forests "touch" the blue sea, romantic and poetic images emerge, evoking memories of the homeland of many famous and talented poets, such as the renowned Ban Thanh Tu Huu group: Han Mac Tu, Che Lan Vien, Quach Tan, and Yen Lan. The vast, colorful ocean appears on stage with images of jellyfish, seafood, coral, whales, etc., creating a sense of peace and romance.

Following the opening art program is the Mega Concert, featuring a lineup of artists from the "Say Hi" universe, promising an explosive performance at Mega Concert Gia Lai. Notable names that will be performing at this music festival include: Isaac, Hieuthuhai, Hurryking, Anh Tu, Pham Anh Duy, Bui Truong Linh...
