Vietnamese musicians took turns performing on stage, including pop singer Amee who sang her hits like Yeu thi yeu khong yeu thi yeu (Lovely love me love me love) and Anh nha o dau the (Boy, where do you live?).

Young rapper HIEUTHUHAI performed Cua (remix) (Flirt), Khong the say (remix) (Why I can’t get drunk), and Ngu mot minh (dance version) (Sleep alone).

Other performers include DJ Mie, Ho Ngoc Ha and Ha Anh Tuan.

Many visitors showed up early in the afternoon to get good spots for the show.

According to Vinpearl Holding Company, 8Wonder sold 7,000 tickets and attracted thousands of audience members, including visitors from other provinces and foreign tourists. The appearance of Charlie Puth and other famous Vietnamese musicians led to a surge in tourists to the south central coastal city.
