The biennial Sea Festival will return to the seaside town of Nha Trang, starting on June 11.

The festival activities will include a whale-worship event, a bird’s nest fest, cooking and wine tastings, a street carnival and beach volleyball tournaments.

The five-day event will also include traditional and modern artistic performances.

The organizers said the festival will feature a Truong Sa (Spratly Islands) Day – packed with conferences and photo exhibitions related to the East Sea island chain.

Visitors to Nha Trang XQ Historical Village, a renowned embroidery bazaar at 64 Tran Phu Street, can walk through a gorgeous garden with roses and orchids.

More than 3,000 rose bushes are being transported from Da Lat, dubbed the “flower city” in the Central Highlands, to the seaside resort town for the event.

Piano and violin concerts will be held nightly along with fashion and dance shows.

This year, ten couples will engage in an underwater wedding ceremony off the coast of the Mun Islet on June 15.

Local artists and a number of performers from Japan, China, France and South Korea have signed up to participate in the event, which was first held in 2003.
