Da Nang targets 8.7 million international arrivals in 2026
Da Nang's tourism sector is targeting 19.5 million overnight visitors in 2026, up 10.5% year on year: 8.7 million international and 10.4 million domestic. Revenue from accommodation, food and travel services is set at 70,000 billion dong, a rise of more than 15%.
The target sits on 2025's base: 17.3 million visitors, of whom 7.6 million were international, and revenue of nearly 60,000 billion dong.
Air access underpins the international half. In 2025 Da Nang airport handled 48,000 flights, 20,200 of them international, and the city maintained 26 scheduled routes including 18 international ones. Sea arrivals added 36 cruise calls carrying more than 43,000 passengers, up 21%.
For companies attending the festival these figures set the negotiating context: a 10.5% target means the additional volume has to come from contracts signed, not from existing momentum.
