Fans said they watched the concert from 6am but no one believed it.
Although 8Wonder 2025 will not officially take place until the evening, many fans have flocked to the National Exhibition Center since early morning to wait to check in. At more than 6 am, the wristband exchange area and check-in gate were already crowded with spectators standing in line, determined to "hug the fence" to get the best positions - where they can clearly see their idols in every beat.
On Threads, social media is buzzing with posts “showing off” the earliest check-in in the village. Account mikemike_th proudly shared: “I’m here at 6am, because I want to hug the fence!”, while stllmebutinchonggaiera humorously wrote: “No one would believe me if I said I was going to see a concert at 6am. But because of Mr. Son (Soobin), I don’t mind the early morning sun.”
The bustling atmosphere spread throughout the National Exhibition Center, in the photo booth areas - where fan communities "played big" by designing photo angles with their idols' imprints. In particular, DPR IAN fans overwhelmed everyone when they set up a "super hot" photo booth, true to artist standards, full of artistry and style. Many fans joked: not checking in here means "automatically" missing the spotlight.
In addition, the experience booths quickly became hot destinations. The VinFast electric car showroom attracted thousands of visitors. Many families gathered to “see the cars and watch music”, enjoying cultural and entertainment events while exploring the green mobility technology of the future.
Since midnight the night before, groups have been bustling with people looking for a “Wonder team”. “If you don’t go, you won’t come back”, “What time do you leave to be on time to hug the fence?”, “Who’s on Hoa Minzy’s team?” – lively, bustling and eager conversations are gradually shaping a very unique “Wonder culture”: not just listening to music, but also living every moment to the fullest – from the moment the sun has not yet risen until the music explodes across the night sky.
Snake, (S) TRONG Trong Hieu took J Balvin to visit Hanoi
While waiting for the countdown to the concert, "brother" (S) TRONG Trong Hieu had time to act as a tour guide, riding a cyclo, taking J Balvin and tlinh for a walk around the streets of Hanoi.
J Balvin quickly shared photos checking in at the train street cafe area, Hanoi Cathedral, Hoan Kiem Lake, and several other locations in the capital. The artist was impressed with the local culture as well as the atmosphere of Vietnamese people celebrating National Day September 2, with red flags with yellow stars everywhere.
On his personal page, he wrote: “First day in Vietnam. Ready for the first reggaeton show in history here.”
And my friend Snake had time to get a haircut and chill out on the streets of Hanoi before that. He will have an explosive 75-minute set at 8Wonder.
In more than 7 hours, a grand music festival gathering superstars from all over the world with super hits will be held to celebrate the National Day in a jubilant and special way at the gateway to the capital.
The 8Wonder 2025: Moments of Wonder music festival brings together a star-studded lineup from all over the world, including DJ Snake (Europe), J Balvin (Latin America), The Kid LAROI (Australia) and DPR IAN (Korea), along with hot V-pop artists such as Soobin, Hoa Minzy, tlinh, (S) TRONG Trong Hieu.
