This open-air festival in the heart of the city boasts all genres that you can think of, and many activities and events for people of all ages. With theatre performances in July, and street concerts in August, this feast will take to you wild experiences and days (and tons) of fun, that get closed by the Soup Festival on the first Sunday in September before starting again next year.

This fest is an original festival of street art, and it offers concerts, dance performances, street theatre and other artistic experiences by performers from all over the world. While all the performances are free of charge, the only fee you need to pay is a donation to those whose performance you have enjoyed, and you can also visit the new project of creative zones for young artists.

Pilsner Fest is a birthday celebration of the world-known brewery Pilsner Urquell, and its unimaginable selection of beer is always completed by great musical performances. While you cannot leave the city without trying its beer, you should also not miss its party when then being in town.

For a memorable night of cultural immersion, visit an evening show at the Nha Trang Water Puppet Theatre. Water puppetry as an art form originated in northern Vietnam as early as the 11th century and is kept alive by a small number of enthusiasts. Although production value is no match to that of bigger cities, the show itself feels thought out and intimate thanks to the smaller performance room. The show is narrated in Vietnamese, but the visual emphasis and engaging subject matter – folk tales and legends – make it easy to follow even if you don't speak the language.
