Da Nang Announces 2026 Tourism Stimulus & MICE Promotion Program: Ariyana Affirms Its Position as the Convergence Destination

1. Da Nang Tourism Context 2026: Double-Digit Growth Target

2026 is expected to be a booming year for Da Nang tourism with the goal of double-digit growth in revenue and visitor arrivals. To realize this, the Da Nang Department of Tourism has coordinated closely with Associations, the business community, and leading accommodation and travel agencies.

The announcement event at Ariyana is not merely an administrative ceremony, but an affirmation of the resilient vitality of a “Most Livable City.” Two main key messages were introduced including:

• “Da Nang – Back to Nature”: Orientation towards sustainable tourism, rediscovering pure cultural and natural values.

• “Da Nang – Elevating MICE Tourism Experiences”: Strategy to transform Da Nang into the leading center for events and conferences (Meeting, Incentive, Convention, Exhibition) in the Southeast Asian region.

2. “Back to Nature” – The Rise of Sustainable Tourism Trends

In a context where global travelers are increasingly discerning and seeking in-depth experiences, the message “Back to Nature” is seen as the answer to the Da Nang tourism brand positioning puzzle.

This campaign focuses on exploiting the following values:

• Pure Nature: Leveraging advantages from Son Tra Peninsula, Marble Mountains, and beaches ranked among the most beautiful on the planet.

• Local Culture: Taking visitors deep into the lives of local people, enjoying authentic cuisine and well-restored traditional festivals.

At Ariyana Convention Centre, this spirit is also subtly integrated through open conference spaces, harmoniously connecting modern architecture and natural greenery, helping event attendees always feel relaxed and full of energy.

3. Da Nang MICE Tourism 2026: Class and Distinction

If leisure tourism is the “soul,” then MICE tourism is the “engine” driving Da Nang’s tourism economy in 2026. The city has issued special incentive policies exclusively for large-scale MICE groups, from supporting customs procedures and airport welcomes to unique souvenir gift packages.

Why is Ariyana the #1 Choice for MICE 2026?

The selection of Ariyana Convention Centre Da Nang as the venue for the program announcement was not coincidental. This location fully meets the most rigorous standards of the conference guest segment:

• Impressive Capacity: With the ability to serve up to 2,500 guests, Ariyana has successfully hosted stature-defining events like APEC 2017 and a series of international medical and economic conferences.

• Integrated Ecosystem: Directly connected to Furama Resort Da Nang – Vietnam’s leading culinary resort, creating an all-in-one accommodation – conference – service complex for every business need.

• Modern Technology: Audio, lighting, and high-speed internet systems here are always updated to serve Hybrid events – an inevitable trend of 2026.

4. The Debut of the Da Nang Events and Destinations Association (DECA)

A major highlight of the ceremony was the debut of the Da Nang Events and Destinations Association (DECA). This is an organization gathering leading businesses in the field of event organization and tourism destinations with a common aspiration: Bringing Da Nang to a global level.

The presence of DECA promises to:

1. Create “All-in-one” event combo packages with extremely competitive prices.

2. Ensure consistent service quality among suppliers.

3. Build professional marketing campaigns in key markets such as Europe, South Korea, and India.

5. Attractive Incentives for MICE Customers 2026

Within the framework of the stimulus program, businesses when organizing events in Da Nang in general and Ariyana in particular will receive special privileges:

• 10% – 20% Discount on hall rental costs and culinary service packages (Gala Dinner).

• Free basic technical equipment packages and media support on the Department of Tourism’s social media platforms.
