The event will attract about 80 paragliders from Viet Nam, Thailand, Laos, France and South Korea.

They will only compete in one category — accurate landing.

The two-day event has been co-organised by the National Sports Administration, municipal Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Ha Noi Paragliding Club and Ha Noi Vietwings Paragliding Club.

It is the first time the event will be held in the capital. Earlier, it was held in the northern mountainous provinces.
