A special video tape promoting Ha Long Bay will be aired in two performances by Backstreet Boys in Vietnam this month.
This is part of a bid to collect votes for the Bay to be recognized as one of the world’s 7 new Wonders in this year's November.
According to the organizers, through this clip, they want to introduce to Backstreet Boys fans the Vietnamese people and their land.
“We should organize the two coming performances as best we can to give them a good impression through which to attract more and more world-famous artists and celebrities to visit and perform in Vietnam in the near future,” stressed Hoang Tuan Anh, Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism.
The Backstreet Boys band is scheduled to perform at the My Dinh national stadium in Hanoi on March 26, two days after performing at Ho Chi Minh City’s Military Zone 7 stadium.
According to the organizers, a total of 55,000 tickets for the two performances have been sold.
A 30-strong technical and support team is expected to accompany the band.
The band consisting of four members A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, Nick Carter and Kevin Richardson, was formed in Orlando, Florida in 1993.
The Backstreet Boys debuted in 1996 and have sold over 130 million records worldwide, making them one of the biggest selling artists of all time.
