The festival will include art performances, cultural exchanges, and the introduction of new artistic works, according to the organizing board.
Many famous musicians coming from HCM City will bring their works to the event. Also, the local will have a chance to enjoy the performance of HCM City Music Conservatory's symphony orchestra for the first time, let alone performances showed by artists coming from Ba Ria – Vung Tau province.

Provincial Vice Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Thanh Binh said the festival would be an opportunity to popularize the province’s images and bring high quality music works to the locals.
The event will also make the first Vietnam forest product festival more successful, she added. The provincial leaders, hence, steered all relevant bodies to coordinate with Vietnam Musicians’ Association to successfully host the festival.
