The contest aimed to celebrate the 93rd anniversary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (February 3 1930-2023) and respond to the 80th anniversary of the “Outline of Vietnamese Culture”.

The Quan Ho Singing Contest, which will last until February 23, features the participation of more than 500 artisans, actors, actresses, musicians and singers from eight art troupes from districts and cities around the province.

At the contest, artisans, actors, actresses and musicians will compete on the music stage and singers will perform ancient Quan Ho songs. The elaborate stage and the combination between both music and Quan Ho songs creates a new vitality for the Quan Ho Folk Singing of Bac Ninh Province.

Also today, the Spring Press Festival officially kicked off, displaying nearly 100 publications from both central and local press agencies. The festival contributes to helping locals and visitors see all aspects of social life, Party building, economic development, defence and security of the country in general and in Bac Ninh in particular.
