Khanh Hoa province has been hosting dozens of festivals, cultural events, and new tourism products in 2024 to lure more tourists and boost tourism, with the most important event being a programme to mark the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the city of Nha Trang (1924-2024).

Besides the Nha Trang-Khanh Hoa Sea Festival, running from March 13-16, the province will also organise an international drone light festival, where thousands of drones will light up the night sky of the beach city from June 29-July 20. Four teams from China, India, the Republic of Korea and host Vietnam will participate in the event.
