THỪA THIÊN-HUẾ — Thousands of local residents, tourists and artists joined together in the live show Huế By Light, an exceptional sound and light show held at Ngọ Môn (Noon Gate) in Huế City, marking the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between France and Việt Nam.

Talented French and Vietnamese artists put on a colourful light-flooded party with contemporary music, traditional Vietnamese instruments, and a unique video mapping show produced by AC3 Studio.

The festival, which was organised in collaboration by the French Embassy in Việt Nam, the Institute of France and the central People's Committee of Thừa Thiên Huế province, has drawn art troupes from the US, France, Korea, Belgium and Việt Nam, including Wallonie-Bruxelles and Grand Poitiers, for different performances over five days.
