“Where to go tonight, go to Phu Quoc night market VUI-Fest” - the funny, easy-to-remember song of Vui Phet - VUI-Fest Bazaar, the new night market in Sunset Town, has become a "familiar" caption that has been spreading all over social networks in the past few days.

After nearly a month of operation, this creative night market has become a place that not only domestic and local tourists love, but also international visitors have to "highly" praise.

There is one thing that anyone who comes to VUI-Fest Bazaar can easily recognize: here, every square meter must have up to... 10 international tourists. At any time during the opening hours of 4pm - 12am every day, coming to Vui Phet, many tourists will certainly have the same feeling as being lost in... a Western market.

Walking around more than 40 booths, quickly interviewing foreign tourists, you will find answers to the question: why are these friends so "crazy" about Vui Phet?

“Fun is always fun”

“The atmosphere here is always bustling. From the colorful signs, to the music, games, shows. Here, we can drink beer, listen to live music and dance until late at night. I have been here for 3 consecutive days, this place is always fun.” - Alexander, a male tourist from France, excitedly shared while dancing with his friends to the music at Gion Bar.

At the same time, at the main stage in the middle of the market, Jinyoung and his group of friends from Busan (Korea) were attentively watching the first performance of the day at 7:00 p.m. of Loạn Xoàng Show and could not hide their... excitement.

“This musical show is very unique, from the choice of musical instruments made from kitchen utensils to the circus performances and fun dancing. We will come back to watch the show again at 9:00 p.m. This night market is very creative and interesting.” - Jinyoung kept praising right after ending the livestream on his personal Instagram page.

Vui Phet has a lot of delicious dishes.

Gathering a variety of food stalls from Vietnamese dishes such as tofu, local seafood, spring rolls, pho, bun cha, banh mi to Asian and European dishes and even milk tea shops, craft beer or refreshments… Vui Phet night market is definitely a destination where you can try “all” delicious dishes with international friends.

“I have eaten at 5 restaurants here with 2 main dishes: bun cha and pandan porridge with anchovies caught from Phu Quoc sea and 3 snacks, all of which are delicious, unique and very reasonably priced. It has been a long time since we have eaten so much.” - holding a cup of tofu, female tourist Nayar from India could not hide her satisfaction with her “achievement” of rolling around Vui Phet.

Fun is not only going to the market but also going to see fireworks.

The reason why many tourists compare Vui Phet to being as joyful as Tet is not only because of its bustling vitality, but also because here visitors can watch daily fireworks from the stage of the Kiss of The Sea show. This is definitely a "privilege" that no other night market in the world has.

“It is truly a unique experience in the world: going to the market and watching fireworks. Every day here is like welcoming the New Year. Very impressive!” that is the status line shared by Juan from Mexico on his personal Facebook page, right after watching the eye-catching fireworks display from the Spello restaurant with a direct view of the Kiss of The Sea stage and the Kiss of The Sea.

Fun is very… friendly

The friendliness of Vui Phet comes not only from the way the market operates: no soliciting, clear price listing in many different languages. In particular, VUI-Fest is also an environmentally friendly market by saying “NO” to plastic bags and plastic straws; at the same time, aiming for clean criteria: clean landscape and clean materials and ingredients used.

“This is the cleanest night market I have ever been to, completely different from the image of night markets full of plastic bags, tissues and plastic cups from shops that I have been to. It is really clean” - Brian from Singapore commented.

Vui Phet has a "secret weapon"

Not only has fireworks as a specialty, Vui Phet night market also has a secret weapon that many other night markets in Thailand, Korea or Taiwan must envy, which is its location embracing the most beautiful coastline of Sunset Town.

Thanks to that, coming to VUI-Fest, visitors can freely check-in with the colorful sunset of Ngoc Island, walk around the beach or enjoy the romantic space to "melt the heart": sipping a glass of wine by candlelight, listening to the waves, melodious music and watching the night sea... That is the reason why many international visitors have come and "chilled" at VUI-Fest... every day.

“My wife and I have been here since 5pm watching the sunset on the beach, now it is 9:30pm and we got to see fireworks. It is truly an experience we have never had before.” - Jack, a male tourist from the US shared.

And Vui Phet is also very… Vietnamese.

The Vietnamese character at Vui Phet is expressed through the inclusion of local culture in shows and entertainment programs; and of course, the indispensable role of "ambassadors" of dishes and regional products sold here.

Coming to VUI-Fest, international visitors not only have the opportunity to enjoy Vietnamese dishes but can also buy very Vietnamese souvenirs at Craft Link, La Sen Viet, Dat Phuong Nam... or local specialties and dishes such as fish sauce, anchovy products at Phung Hung shop, dragon fruit wine or Vietnamese tea...

“We love to explore Vietnamese culture. And that’s why my friends and I came to this market. I bought some really pretty souvenirs like this.” - female tourist Mathy did not hesitate to show off the meticulously drawn conical hat she had just bought.

It can be said that with countless plus points: creative DNA; central location of the top sightseeing - entertainment - recreation spots of Sunset Town such as Cau Hon, Kiss The Stars show, Hon Thom cable car station... and Vietnamese culture clearly portrayed; it is not surprising that VUI-Fest has become a "must-try" destination for domestic and foreign tourists.

And certainly, the upcoming Lunar New Year, the night market by Vui Phet beach will be even more fun than the festival with countless unique experiences.
