Vietnam has hosted various international cultural exchange programs and classical arts performances. 

In late October 2026, Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi featured significant classical works. The Ho Chi Minh City Ballet Symphony Orchestra and Opera performed the ballet ‘Giselle’ at the Municipal Theater, directed by Yuki Ohmori and Chloé Glemot. Simultaneously, the Kyushu Symphony Orchestra from Japan conducted a series of concerts in Hanoi featuring works by Mozart and Brahms.

Subsequent events included the “Vietnam-China Friendship Songs 2026” program at the Vietnam Broadcasting Station Theater, which utilized folk music and romantic songs to promote mutual understanding between artists from Vietnam, China, and Hong Kong. Additionally, the Versailles Royal Orchestra performed Baroque music at the Ho Guom Theater in Hanoi, with musicians incorporating the Vietnamese traditional Ao Dai into their presentation.
