Nguyen Thi Bich Dung, Director of the municipal Department of Foreign Affairs, said the event would popularise the image of Hai Phong's land and people, especially investment incentives and a favorable investment environment for domestic and international friends.

Visitors to the festival will have a chance to learn about the origin of Belgian beer and understand why it was recognized as an intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO.

The three-day event held and sponsored by Deep C will introduce 30 beer types imported directly from Belgium and specialty dishes steeped in Belgian style.

It will also feature three concerts with the participation of leading domestic and foreign artists, including famous Belgian DJs.

An innovation and sustainable development seminar will be held on October 25 to introduce Hai Phong's investment environment to domestic and foreign investors.
