When people think of Vietnam, they often picture steaming bowls of pho or crispy banh mi on busy street corners. But in Central Vietnam, food tells a different story - one defined by bold spices, fresh seafood, and a deep connection to the coast. This May, Da Nang is turning that culinary identity into the city’s largest celebration.
From May 20 to May 24, the Da Nang Food Tour Festival 2026 will bring together food lovers, local artisans, and chefs for five days of immersion by the beach. This isn't just a food fair; it’s a journey into the heritage of "Quang" cuisine, shared between Da Nang and its neighboring regions.
