Two national records will be set at the Sea Festival 2009 from June 6-14, 2009 in the coastal city of Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa province, said the province’s Vice Chairman Le Xuan Than.

The first is a 100m long environmentally-themed painting. There will be five chief painters, but everyone can participate in this work. Painters will then edit the painting before it is shown to the public.

The second record will be a show given by the projected largest folk orchestra in Vietnam, which will consist of artists from the Nha Trang College for Culture, Art and Tourism.

The festival, entitled “Nha Trang – Khanh Hoa: civilised and friendly”, will have outstanding activities like a street festival, a Cau Ngu festival (fish worshipping ceremony), book fair, and sand sculplture contest. Some countries in the World’s Best Bays Club and some foreign art troupes will attend the festival.
