Da Nang residents and visitors overwhelmed with emotion at "Peaceful Homeland" gala night
DNO - The "Peaceful Homeland" gala art program, an event honoring the 80-year heroic legacy of Vietnam’s People’s Public Security force held at the eastern bank of Da Nang's Dragon Bridge on Saturday evening, attracted a large audience.
Broadcast live nationwide, the gala was staged on a grand scale, combining music, dance and drama with a street festival, parades and modern technology.
The program was structured into chapters "The Flow of Peace", "The Shield of Peace" and "The Heroic Epic of Peace".
It recreated the 80-year journey of the development, achievements and maturity of the People's Security Force, as well as highlighted the silent contributions to the peace of life.
The performance space was expanded across multiple layers, from the main stage to the Dragon Bridge area and the waters of the Han River.
Parades, canoe performances, artistic fireworks, and light-mapping projections together created an impressive visual effect.
One of the evening’s most symbolic highlights was a parade and marching procession across the Dragon Bridge, featuring officers and soldiers of the People’s Public Security force walking alongside local residents, children and representatives of ethnic communities.
The moment conveyed a powerful message of solidarity between the police force and the people, helping to build a strong “people’s security posture”.
In particular, the specially choreographed action sequences vividly recreated tense intelligence operations, the pursuits of criminals, and the efforts to protect public safety.
Notably, a sacred torch procession ceremony combined with visual effects on the Dragon Bridge added a solemn highlight that conveyed the message of continuing revolutionary traditions, and fostering national pride and a sense of responsibility among younger generations.
The gala concluded with a dazzling fireworks display over the western bank of the Han River, bringing the evening to an emotional climax.
Bursts of fireworks lit up the night sky over Da Nang, providing memorable moments for residents and visitors while spreading the message of a “peaceful homeland”.
