Binh Duong New City Culture Festival aims to contribute to developing Binh Duong into a dynamic city, imbued with cultural identity through music.
The organisers expect that the music will be a bridge to bring people closer together and have positive energy towards contributing to the sustainable development of society, especially Binh Duong province.
