The city will also introduce its Da Nang Food Tours 2026 series, featuring culinary experience tours across Da Nang, Hoi An, Dien Ban, Tam Ky, and Dai Loc, designed to build tourism products anchored in local culture and regional heritage.
Organisers are putting greater emphasis on digital technology to sharpen promotion and visitor experiences, while working with companies to lift service quality and push Da Nang’s ambition of becoming a leading culinary destination in the region.
Vice Chairwoman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen Thi Anh Thi said the city has sustained robust socio-economic momentum since the start of the year, powered by tourism. Lodging facilities hosted nearly 6 million visitors in the first four months, a 19.2% jump from a year earlier. Foreign arrivals climbed 24.9% to almost 3.4 million.
During the recent Hung Kings Commemoration Day and April 30 – May 1 holiday, Da Nang ranked among the country’s top performers for both arrivals and revenue, welcoming 1.46 million visitors, up nearly 35% from the same period in 2025. Tourism revenue hit an estimated 5.7 trillion VND (247.8 million USD)./.
