The "Sao nhap ngu 2026" concert, set for the evening of 9/5, will showcase an array of military equipment, including tanks, specialized vehicles, and helicopters, integrated into artist performances. Rehearsals for the event, which involved this equipment, took place at the F1 Racetrack - My Dinh in Hanoi. The program, inspired by the popular reality TV show of the same name where entertainment stars experience military life, aims to evoke a sense of national pride and youthful aspirations.

A T-54B tank, notably a participant in the parade commemorating the 80th anniversary of Vietnam's National Day, will be featured in a segment of the show. This tank is equipped with explosive reactive armor (era) blocks on its turret and front, enhancing its survivability against anti-tank weapons.

The program is structured into three acts: "Xung phong" (Charge), "Nhat ky" (Diary), and "Doi thoai tuoi doi muoi" (Dialogue of the Twenties), featuring 20 medleys. Many familiar traditional songs, such as "Co gai mo duong", "Ho keo phao", "Day ma di", and "Tieu doan 307", have been given new arrangements.
This marks the second iteration of the "Sao nhap ngu" concert. The first event, held in 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City, attracted thousands of attendees.
