On the evening of June 21, more than 10,000 spectators at the DIFF 2025 stands and hundreds of thousands of people looked up to the Han River sky, enjoying the competition night with the largest number of fireworks in the qualifying round, with two surprising performances by the two teams Portugal and the United Kingdom.

With the theme “Sustainable Development” , the fourth competition night of the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival – DIFF 2025, sponsored by Sun Group and organized by the People’s Committee of Da Nang City, brought an evening of explosive emotions to the audience and visitors. Two teams from Europe brought eye-catching performances, a subtle combination of modern fireworks techniques and humanistic messages, making the entire audience burst with surprise and excitement.

Portuguese "newcomer" goes crazy in "Light Concert for a Green Future"

With nearly 100 years of experience and reputation in Europe, the Macedos Pirotecnia fireworks team from Portugal lit up the Da Nang stage with a real rock concert in the night sky of the Han River.

The fireworks story begins with the fiery rhythm of “Rock You Like A Hurricane”, the famous hit by the rock band Scorpions. To the lyrics “Here I am”, the fireworks burst into flames, exploding like rolling waves, rushing to sweep the audience into a musical hurricane. It feels like the whole audience is immersed in a wild concert, lights and electronic instruments with chorus.

But just when the audience thought they had grasped the “flow” of the performance, the Portuguese team suddenly changed the tone. The melodious melody of “Love Vietnam” rang out, the birds of light flew in the sky, and the series of “sunrise” fireworks spread with emotion. A quiet but profound message about love for nature, about a green future began to be told, slowly and thoughtfully.

The latter part is a symphony of emotions when Lusitana Paixão, Rio Favo de Mel or even a piece of music from “Lacrimosa” (Mozart) are remixed, pushing the climax to a climax. Typical pyrotechnic effects such as comets, waterfalls of light, volcanic cannons… paint the sky a vivid world of light, conveying the message of protecting the blue planet in a language that is both majestic and delicate.

Musician Nguyen Duc Trinh shared: “Despite being a rookie, Portugal has truly brought a symphony of light, especially creative and novel. The performance brought many emotions, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes painful, sometimes screaming... This is truly a strong team in this year's DIFF season.”

Macedos Pirotecnia really “burned” until the last minute, where the fireworks matched every musical note, sometimes fierce and passionate, sometimes melodious and high and low. With skillful performance techniques, the team created an epic with the message of preserving the pristine beauty of Mother Nature, living in harmony and developing sustainably.

UK with “Emotional Waves” awakens all senses

No stranger to DIFF audiences, the Pyrotex Fireworx team from the UK returns to the Han River with a performance that is likened to a poetic cinematic concert called “Emotional Waves”. With approximately 8,000 individually designed fireworks, each chapter of the performance is a pillow music, leading the audience from gentle, romantic to exciting and sublime.

The opening is quiet, like a love song written in the middle of the deep ocean. But then suddenly speeds up with a familiar cinematic soundtrack from the 007 - James Bond series, bringing the audience into a world of dramatic action. Immediately after, the atmosphere turns cheerful and familiar with a series of Vietnamese songs such as "Please forget me" (My Tam), "Noi nay co anh" (Son Tung M-TP) resounding, making the entire Vietnamese audience burst into laughter with delight. The audience not only watched but also sang along, swayed, and joined in the emotional joy.

And then, like a gentle but profound transition, the final part of the performance brought the audience back to timeless masterpieces: Canto Della Terra, Live and Let Die, Dancing Queen, Future World Music… all blended into a mesmerizing symphony of fireworks. That was the moment of excitement, both calm and sublime, like standing in the middle of an outdoor fireworks opera.

If Portugal brings a fiery rock concert, then England is a symphony of many styles, from action, romance to cinema, all blended into one "emotional wave" that immerses the audience with no way out.

“The highlight of the British team is always creating classic colors and exploding in the sky with splendid colors, especially the extremely brilliant ending in the sky” – Musician Nguyen Duc Trinh said.

Unique music night on the banks of the Han River

The fourth night of DIFF 2025 is not only a spectacular fireworks display, but also a complete artistic feast of sound, light and emotion. The elaborately staged singing and dancing performances with the participation of powerful singers such as Dong Hung, Lam Bao Ngoc, To My and a professional dance troupe made the Ngu Hanh Son stage truly explode, becoming the brilliant heart of Da Nang's summer.

Not only stopping at performing arts, Sky AR outdoor virtual reality technology continues to make its mark. Since the opening night, this interactive experience has attracted thousands of check-ins, creating a fever in the tourist community. Sky AR connects the audience with the festival in a new way, and shows Da Nang's strong progress in applying digital technology to enhance tourism.

Mr. Sandeep Arya - Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of India to Vietnam shared: “DIFF is becoming a major attraction for international tourists, including tourists from India. Da Nang inherently possesses rare natural beauty, with wonderful places such as Ba Na Hills, or Hoi An, which both have heritage value and modern features.
