With the desire to build a continuous emotional journey, where viewers are led from the glorious past, through the vibrant present, to the hopeful future, the stage "Moments of Wonder" opens up a brilliant space with the intersection between Vietnamese identity and multinational music.

Next up was rapper 2Pillz. He performed the vibrant and free-spirited dance pop “Thắc nính” that kept the audience cheering.
The special feature of this year's 8Wonder will be a journey connected by music, emotions and visual systems. The stage visual is quite unique as it is completely hand-drawn, imbued with a contemporary spirit and artistic value. Each stroke is not only an illustration but also a proud declaration of the Vietnamese language, Vietnamese culture and Vietnamese spirit in an international event.
Many performances were staged with many traditional musical instruments, creating an inspiring musical space. The audience felt more clearly the intersection between Vietnamese cultural identity and global character.
That was clearly shown in the performance of singers Hoa Minzy and Soobin Hoang Son.
Singer Hoa Minzy brought the HIT "Bac Bling" to the 8Wonder stage in a completely different way than before - youthful, patriotic and international with the appearance of 200 children wearing red flags with yellow stars.
The female singer also performed part of the song “Pain in the Middle of Peace” – the song in the movie “Red Rain” made to celebrate the 80th anniversary of National Day.
Soobin Hoang Son really made the 50,000+ audience of 8Wonder “explode” with his multi-talented performances. He demonstrated two different styles very smoothly.
He expressed his pride in Vietnamese quintessence through the songs “Trong Com”, “Nguoi Viet”, “Ngoi lac man thuyen”… and showed his international spirit with “Daydreams”, “Dancing in the dark”, “BlackJack”, “SUPPERSTAR”… The male singer also “captured the hearts” of the audience with his extremely lyrical performance of the monochord and piano.
Opening the international stars' performance, Korean singer DPR IAN brought a unique musical color, blending rock, jazz, techno and alternative to the Vietnamese audience. His HITs such as "Don't go Insane", "So Beautiful", "Calico", "Nerves", "Limbo" mesmerized the audience.
During the performance, DPR IAN also spoke Vietnamese sentences a few times, further arousing the audience's interest.
Colombian artist J Balvin, 6-time Grammy nominee and 5-time Latin Grammy winner, brought excitement to the stage in his first performance in Vietnam.
Dubbed the “King of Reggaeton” and one of the best-selling Latin artists of all time, his rendition of internationally renowned hits such as “Loco Contigo”, “Mi Gente”, “Amarillo”, “Taki Taki”, “I like it” (ft tlinh) was vibrant and full of Latin flair.
Truly a musical icon that erases all cultural boundaries, J Balvin and tlinh created a super beautiful moment on the 8Wonder stage, expressing joy with the Vietnamese people in the heroic atmosphere towards the 80th anniversary of the country's founding.
Burning the stage of the concert was the young Australian singer The Kid LAROI. At only 21 years old, he has a series of impressive achievements, especially the hit "Stay" in collaboration with Justin Bieber, holding the No.1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 for 6 consecutive weeks and staying in the top 10 for a total of 17 weeks. His "EP FCK LOVE 3 (OVER YOU)" also dominated the Billboard 200 at No.1.
With his distinctive voice, catchy melodies and a spirit of constantly breaking limits, The Kid LAROI brings to 8Wonder impressive songs such as "Stay", "Thousand Miles", "Baby I'm Back", "How does it feel?", "Without You", "So done".
DJ Snake – the French-Algerian “hit maker” appeared last and was also the main artist of the festival, making the audience explode with emotions with international-class performances with the music set “Turn Down for What”, “Lean On”, “Let Me Love You”, “You Know You Like It”, “Get low”… combining trap, dubstep and contemporary electronic.
The concert ended with a brilliant fireworks display to celebrate the 80th anniversary of National Day.
8Wonder: “Moments of Wonder” not only brought a feast of music to over 50,000 audiences, but also affirmed the appeal and new position of Vietnam on the international festival map. It was a moment to be proud together, to nurture the aspiration to reach far, to make the Vietnamese spirit shine.
