HCM City’s Dam Sen theme park will host a three-day festival this month on the travel promotions on offer around the country this summer.

Travel agencies and tourism promoters from 15 provinces and airlines will take part in Gap Go Dat Phuong Nam (Meeting at the South) that opens on April 18.

A bonanza of discounts, coupons, and gifts from travel operators awaits visitors.

Saigontourist will hold a lucky draw for locals, with two winners getting a free trip to the US.

Others like Ben Thanh Tourist plan to offer discounts on outbound tours.

But a feature of the exhibition will be the preponderance of tours to beach towns.

The event will also have musical performances, a food and drink festival, and a photo contest with HCM City as the theme.
