This is the first time that Light Festival is held in Da Nang; thus, Global2000 will focus on light technology demonstration, which is mainly for local people to become familiar. From the next festivals in Da Nang, Light Festival will become a thrilling contest with the participation of many countries, similar to Da Nang International Fireworks Competition. A team from the participating countries will "draw light" on different streets to compete, which will be judged and awarded. Global2000 proposed Da Nang leaders for holding alternatively a year of fireworks competition, and a year of light festival. However, currently Da Nang only licensed Global2000 to hold Light Festival in 2015.

Mrs. Tran Thi Kieu Lan said that Da Nang Light Festival 2015 will take place on Bach Dang Street along the western bank of Han River (from Dragon Bridge to Han River port area). The 36-story Novotel Hotel will be the main stage of the event. Bridges, buildings, open squares, streets and Han River in this area will be places where light painters show off their unique skills and amazing sound effects according to themes of the festival. "Our goal is to make Da Nang illuminated through the unique festival of lights which has not been held in the city, one the occasion of 40th anniversary of Vietnam Reunification. Along with Da Nang International Fireworks Competition 2015, Da Nang Light Festival 2015 will contribute more fame to Da Nang City no just in the country but also in the world!", Mrs. Tran Thi Kieu Lan shared.
