Thang Long Imperial Citadel is designed to honour the beauty of Ao Dai, with more than 100 booths of designers, artisans, tourism organisations and localities.
Within the framework of the Festival, the Ao Dai Carnival took place on the morning of October 5.
This is a large-scale art performance and parade organised by the Hanoi Women's Union in coordination with the Department of Tourism to spread the love of Ao Dai to numerous people, friends and international tourists of all ages and genders.
More than 1,000 women wearing Ao Dai will parade through the streets around the Thang Long Imperial Citadel and pass by famous heritages. At the same time, Ao Dai performances will also take place in many localities across the city.
The wearing of “ao dai” (traditional long dress) costume and tailoring craft of the dress has been recognised as a national intangible heritage by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the fourth such recognition in the central province.
Hanoi-styled ‘pho’ and the craft of tailoring Ao Dai in Hue City, Thua Thien Hue Province, have recently been recognised as national intangible cultural heritages by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism.
The 2024 Hanoi Tourism Ao Dai Festival will take place at the Thang Long-Hanoi Heritage Conservation Centre in Hanoi from October 4 to 6, according to a decision approved by the municipal People’s Committee.
The 2024 Hue Community Ao Dai (long dress) Week was launched on June 24 in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue, aiming to preserving and promoting the beauty of the Vietnamese traditional costume.
Around 5,500 people clad in Ao Dai (traditional Vietnamese gown) joined a parade in Dong Thap Province on May 19.
