Notable are the Vietnamese Puppetry show and the Mai Hoa Thung Lion and Dragon Dance performance. Visitors will enjoy the typical art form of the Northern Delta with the Vietnamese Puppetry show taking place at the largest puppet theater in the Central region - Au O Theater with a capacity of nearly 600 seats. The show lasts 20 minutes with 2 performances at 6:30 p.m. and 8 p.m.
Elaborately staged from the script, props to costumes, Vietnamese Puppetry will lead the audience to explore the flow of Vietnamese culture through familiar folk stories integrated into performances such as: Song long hi thuy (Dragon Dance and Festival Drum); Duyen dang quai thao; Hat xa thuong; Telling stories of harvest days; Spiritual dance...
Through the performance of the artisans of the Vietnam Puppetry Theatre, the show is a harmonious combination of two art forms, dry puppetry and water puppetry, which are over 1,000 years old, combining folk tales with contemporary elements, depicting the beauty of the country and people of Vietnam.
In addition to Vietnamese puppetry, visitors to this entertainment complex during the Mid-Autumn Festival can also enjoy lion and dragon performances from 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. on September 15-17 at the Nepal Gate (main gate).
This is considered the most anticipated activity by many locals and tourists because the bustling sound of the lion drum is indispensable, always bringing the joyful atmosphere typical of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
