HCM City (VNS/VNA) - Ho Chi Minh City will host  Ho do 2019  (HOZO), an international music festival on December 13-15, according to the municipal Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism. The festival is part of HCM City’s strategic investment plan to develop the city’s cultural industry until 2020. HCM City has long been considered a place with the most exciting music activities in the country. However, many locals have not had a chance to experience the real spirit that a festival should have.
