On the evening of January 26, the organizing committee conducted a general review, inspection, and evaluation of the content, art, techniques, weather factors, and safety plans for the "Brilliant Thang Long 2025" art program.

During the test flight of the pyrotechnic drone, due to technical factors, some equipment fell into an empty field, setting fire to dry grass. Immediately afterwards, the authorities promptly extinguished the fire, with no loss of life or property.

According to the previous plan of Nam Tu Liem district, the "Brilliant Thang Long 2025" art program will have a performance of 2025 + 95 pyrotechnic drones (2025 symbolizes the new year and 95 symbolizes the 95th anniversary of the Party's founding) lighting up the capital's sky.

Especially with the participation of the contemporary folk orchestra under the direction of conductor Dong Quang Vinh, it will bring a Tet atmosphere that is both traditional and modern.
