In terms of expertise, People's Artist Nguyen Quang Vinh, Chairman of the Art Council, said that the Festival had programs imbued with local identity through very simple and rustic performances, even preserving the original form, preserving the ancient songs and traditional melodies that have existed since ancient times...

Some programs are invested in elaborately, from the script throughout, closely following the program's theme, with a tight layout with a variety of genres... Creative elements know how to combine interactions from decorative arts, props, images, technology, exploiting and developing the combination between traditional and modern art, between forms of cultural and religious activities and contemporary stage performances, creating conditions for artists to have the opportunity to sublimate and shine in each role.

However, despite great efforts to create products with different variations, it is still difficult to avoid duplication when using techniques in the art of installation, decoration or exploiting the same music technology platforms for many art units with very different identities...

At the closing ceremony, the Organizing Committee awarded Gold Medals to 3 units: People's Public Security Music and Dance Theater with the work "Order from the Heart", Ha Giang Provincial Art Troupe with "Ha Giang - The Call of the Rocks", Binh Duong Provincial Cultural Center with the work "The Call of the Source". These are works that are highly appreciated for both content and artistic quality, demonstrating the creativity and dedication of the artists.
