The lyrics of the song "Một thoáng quê hương" (by composers Tu Huy and Thanh Tung) opened the Ao Dai art program "Hanoi - Hue - Saigon," which was held on the evening of June 25th at Nghinh Luong Dinh in Hue City. This event is one of the highlights of the Hue Community Ao Dai Week 2024 (taking place from June 24th to June 30th, 2024).
For the ancient capital of Hue, the Ao Dai is a unique cultural heritage that has been formed, developed, and existed for over 300 years. In recent years, Thua Thien Hue province has initiated and promoted the revival of traditional Ao Dai (including both men's and women's Ao Dai) in conjunction with the implementation of the project "Hue - the Capital of Vietnamese Ao Dai." Within Thua Thien Hue province, the cultural sector, playing a leading role, has integrated Ao Dai into daily life, cultural and sports festivals, flag-raising ceremonies in offices, and more.

Along with Hue, the movement to develop traditional Ao Dai and revive the national costume is spreading strongly nationwide, driven by the efforts of various associations and organizations, particularly among the youth.

The Ao Dai collections from designers of the three regions were showcased and introduced at the program.
Integrated into the inspiration of Ao Dai is the cultural presence of the three regions—North, Central, and South—featuring distinctive performances such as Hat Xam (Northern region), singing and dancing (Hue), and Vong Co and Don Ca Tai Tu (Southern region).
A homecoming and convergence on the homeland of Ao Dai, the essence of Hue's craftsmanship is also honored through the creativity and skill of young, talented Ao Dai designers with collections titled "Hue Crafts and Ao Dai."
The art program "Ao Dai, Hanoi - Hue - Saigon" brought a range of emotions through the music and performance art of artists and models from across the three regions of the country.
