The

Festival,

event
to

held
next
month,
will
feature
contemporary
pop,
rock

music
in
order
to
attract
young
audiences.
"Many
audience
members
feel
that
the
event
is
for
traditional
culture
and
old
values.
So
we're
making
an
effort
not
to
exclude
young
people,"
said
Huynh
Tien
Dat,
deputy
director
of
the
Hue
Festival
Centre,
which
is
organising
the
event.

a
