Use a ticket here

Get here early. If you think you will get a seat 5 mins before the schedule cultural performance you will be wrong. Was standing room only. Terrific dance/music show. Highly recommend.

Additional Charm in Hoi An

To compliment Hoi An's charm, Xu Dang Trong has daily music and art performances. There's a lady that explains each performance beforehand so you don't get lost in translation. I think it's worth a visit in addition to the various activities in Hoi An. I...More
