DIFF 2024 will feature firework displays by international teams from France, Italy, Poland, Finland, the US, Germany, and China, and the Da Nang team representing Vietnam. The event is scheduled to be held across five nights.
Each team will be able to display their fireworks shows over the course of 20 minutes.
The DIFF stage will cover 1,050 sq.m along the Han River bank on Tran Hung Dao street of Son Tra district, along with a 5,000-seat grandstand set up for spectators to view the festival.
Visitors will have a chance to admire brilliant fireworks displays over five nights, together with special art programs held as part of the opening ceremony, featuring famous artists.
The two best teams will compete to take the top prize on the final night on July 13.

Of the total, the total number of international visitors reached more than two million, a four-fold increase on-year and equivalent to 62% of the figure in 2019.
