8WONDER's international reputation has become a trademark
“We love Vietnam. It’s great to finally be here after 15 years. Thank you for welcoming us to this beautiful and culturally rich country,” said Dan Reynolds, lead singer of rock legend Imagine Dragons, at 8WONDER Winter.
The top performances and unique musical style of the "21st century world rock music monument" "burned up" the atmosphere at the most livable metropolis in Saigon - Vinhomes Grand Park, making 8WONDER Winter the largest and most explosive music event of the year-end, not only in Vietnam but also in the region.
“Imagine Dragons’ performance was fantastic. The band brought us back to a series of hits that we already knew by heart. The audience atmosphere here was also very enthusiastic,” said musician Huy Tuan.
The audience at 8WONDER was overwhelmed by the sumptuous musical feast that satisfied all senses, with an unprecedentedly grand stage, unique concept, modern equipment and the most advanced technology.
“International artists are increasingly confident in the Vietnamese music market. When they come here, they are completely assured of technical equipment as well as performance. That is a very encouraging sign showing that we have made breakthroughs in our position on the world map,” said singer Tung Duong.
Meanwhile, according to music producer Nguyen Huu Vuong, Vietnam also satisfies one of the prerequisites to receive the “nod” from international stars. That is the scale of the program as well as the size of the audience.
“The large audience is also an important factor that makes Vietnam a favorite destination for international stars, especially stars at their peak with busy schedules like Imagine Dragons,” said producer Nguyen Huu Vuong.
The reality at Vinhomes Grand Park on the evening of December 8th proved this, tens of thousands of domestic and international audiences ignited the atmosphere with their enthusiasm for their idols. The attention of a large number of listeners also created a wave on forums right from when 8WONDER announced the famous line-up, and took the Top 1 position in search trends on social networks in recent days.
“8WONDER’s international reputation has become a brand. World artists will have a different view of our professional, methodical and civilized organization. That is thanks to domestic brands like 8WONDER who have big thoughts, are willing to spend as well as have the stature to realize dreams” - singer Tung Duong commented.
A model in promoting the image of prosperous Vietnam to five continents
In order for Vietnam to become a familiar destination on the world tour map of top international stars, experts also believe that there needs to be proactive cooperation from leading enterprises such as Vingroup.
First of all, Vingroup is considered to be very "willing to spend" when bringing contemporary world music icons to Vietnam, such as Imagine Dragons or Charlie Puth, Maroon 5 of the last 2 seasons. According to singer Tung Duong, this shows the "heart and vision" of 8WONDER when always trying to help fans shorten the distance with international stars that we used to only see on TV, the Internet...
Meanwhile, musician Huy Tuan said that the fact that 8WONDER has collaborated with so many big artists is not too surprising for those in the profession.
“Vingroup has all of those capabilities. Not only the music events but also the products and services they are making show their meticulousness and precision. That is not to mention the special products that are important to the national image like 8WONDER” - the musician shared.
More than just a music event, 8WONDER is a model in promoting the image of a prosperous and dynamic country to the world, thanks to the perfect combination of music festival, tourism and culture" - musician Huy Tuan commented.
