Ten Vietnamese and four Japanese dance troupes will be performing Yosakoi at the Genki Festival in Ha Noi this weekend.
Yosakoi, one of the most popular dance forms in Japan, will be the highlight of the Genki Festival, which is being co-organised by the Viet Nam – Japan Cultural Exchange Association.
Representing Viet Nam will be the Ha Noi Sennen Yosakoi troupe. About 100 dancers are currently rehearsing for the show.
The two-day festival will be held at the Giang Vo Exhibition Centre.
In addition to Yosakoi, there will be a series of Japanese cultural activities such as origami, formal tea ceremonies and cherry tree displays.
For the event, cherry trees, which blossom in March and April, will be brought to Viet Nam from Japan.
