Party «JAPONISM Vietnam Tour 2026: The Beach Party»

   The middle chapter of this Japan and Vietnam tour happens outdoors on the Da Nang coast, starting in the afternoon and running through sunset. Entry is free, which makes it the most accessible of the three parties.

   JAPONISM is a project named after the nineteenth century art movement, when Europe fell for Japanese prints, and today it fuses Japanese art, music and party culture. Its Vietnam tour is built from three connected parties: it opens in Saigon, then splits into two Da Nang chapters, an afternoon by the sea and a late night after party at a club in town. This is the first time the series has staged an edition at a beach venue.

   The afternoon line-up:

• — Ku Shin Sai Orchestra, the group of Katsu Arai, endorphin and Nure Tengu;
• — Ryoka Ishii and Maya, the two Japanese artists travelling with the whole tour;
• — Windy M and Anahi Villalobos.

   Musically this chapter leans toward house and afro house: percussive, open in rhythm and less abrasive than a late night set, exactly the register for a long afternoon by the water. The setting is Maia Beach Bar, a Da Nang beach bar, and that seaside resort atmosphere is the biggest difference between this part and the other two.

   It is the chapter that works best if you are travelling with family or with friends who do not keep club hours, if you want electronic music with sky and sea still in view, or if you simply plan to warm up before a long night.

   Bring a light layer for when the sun goes down, because this afternoon runs longer than you expect.
