On the evening of 1 November, Thái Nguyên Stadium will host the national concert "Tự hào là người Việt Nam 2026" (Proud to be Vietnamese 2026), themed "Nối vòng tay lớn". The show starts at 8:00 pm, is expected to draw about 30,000 people, and runs in two parts: a 90-minute first part broadcast live on VTV1, and a 60-minute open music festival for the public.
The Central Propaganda and Education Commission directs the programme. The Thái Nguyên Provincial Party Committee and People's Committee coordinate with the relevant agencies and units to stage it.
The announced line-up includes conductor Đồng Quang Vinh, Meritorious Artists Đăng Dương and Hoàng Tùng, and singers Tùng Dương, Noo Phước Thịnh, Hòa Minzy, Võ Hạ Trâm, Lâm Bảo Ngọc, Phạm Anh Khoa and Bảo Trâm Idol, along with a symphony band and choral groups.
As of writing, the organisers have not announced ticket prices or how tickets will be distributed. Audiences should wait for official notices rather than rely on resale channels.

A production view: stage, audio, lighting, LED screens and crowd operations
A stadium show for tens of thousands is a different problem from a hall show. These are the points a production crew usually settles early, written in general terms for this type of programme rather than as claims about any specific show.
Decking and structure. A stadium has turf and a running track that must be protected, so stage decking, truss feet and forklift routes all sit on load-spreading mats. An outdoor stage also carries wind load on its roof and on every banner surface, so the frame is usually anchored and rated to a permitted wind speed, with a plan to drop the banners when weather turns.
LED screens. Outdoors calls for high-brightness cabinets with suitable water resistance. The furthest viewing distance sets the pixel pitch: someone in the far stand may sit more than a hundred metres out, so a main screen is normally paired with two side screens so people at an angle can still read faces. When a show is broadcast live, LED content also needs a refresh rate high enough that cameras do not pick up scan lines.
Audio. A stadium is an acoustically awkward space. A flown line array plus delay clusters placed within the stands lets far seats hear in time with near seats. Delay timing is usually measured at rehearsal with empty stands, then retrimmed once people are in, because a full house changes how much sound is absorbed.
Lighting. A broadcast needs enough base light for cameras, while a concert needs contrast and effect. Those two demands are usually met by layering: a face-light layer for the cameras and an effect layer for the mood, both running on one timecode with the LED and audio.
Livestream and recording. Multiple cameras, a jimmy jib, a vision mixer and backup signal paths. For a live broadcast, the uplink normally runs on two carriers in parallel so one failure does not take the feed down.
Crowd operations. Thirty thousand people need enough ticket gates, clear signage, exit routes kept free of equipment, and a plan worked out with security and medical teams. Clear-out time after the show matters too, since vehicles and people leave at the same moment.

Conclusion
For a stadium-scale night like this, what the audience sees on stage is only half the job; the other half is the structure, the equipment and the crew behind it. Hoàn Vũ builds stages, LED screens, audio and lighting systems and livestream setups for indoor and outdoor programmes, and takes on event production to order.
