The booth screened popular patriotic films such as The Scent of Burning Grass, Tunnel: The Sun in the Shadows, The Little Girl of Hanoi, Hanoi Winter of 1946, and Dong Loc T-Junction. It also hosted a live broadcast of the U23 Vietnam - U23 Bangladesh match at 7 p.m. on 3/9, the opening match for the Vietnamese team in the U23 Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2026 qualifiers, for which FPT Play holds the broadcasting rights.

The booth also highlighted milestones in FPT Play's development. The company entered the television service market in 2007. In the following years, it became one of the few providers in Vietnam to offer both IPTV and OTT services. In 2021, the company merged its FPT Play and FPT Television brands, launching the FPT Play decoder, a device integrating both platforms.

From 2020 onwards, the brand has experienced significant domestic growth, acquiring a large library of licensed content, including sports, movies, children's programs, and TV shows. Simultaneously, the company introduced decoders with new technologies.

Since 2025, the company has focused on developing and applying AI technologies to enhance and personalize user entertainment experiences. Aligning with FPT Corporation's overall goals, FPT Play has expanded into esports, recently launching FangTV, a dedicated livestreaming platform for gaming and esports content.

Pham Thanh Tuan, Chairman and CEO of FPT Play, FPT Corporation, stated that these milestones are summarized on the "Journey Wall" at the center of the booth. "With the main idea of a technology stream, our 'chronicle' will take visitors through each stage of the country's television development over the past two decades," Tuan said.
