 As a part of the festival, the "Saigon Times-Great Circle-Together with Vietnam's Tourism – I love Danang beach" program scheduled for August 2 would also be affected.

This was mentioned in a notice issued last night, July 25, by the Danang People’s Committee in an effort to prevent and control Covid-19 outbreak in the community.

The document also refers to the suspension of festive activities, religious ceremonies, sports leagues, mass gatherings in public places, stadiums and unnecessary large events. Non-essential service businesses like amusement parks, entertainment centers, beauty facilities, karaoke, massage parlors, bars, dance halls, etc. must be closed.
