The Tiger Remix 2026 event series kicked off at Hung Vuong Square, Dong Thap province (formerly My Tho City, Tien Giang), on 26-27/12, attracting approximately 35,000 people to enjoy music and experience the fortune hunt. Held annually in recent years, the event has become a festival symbol for many local residents.

Tiger Remix 2026 marked the debut of the giant Tiger hot air balloon. Participants experienced the thrill of quickly seizing fortune, from QR codes on the hot air balloon to the "courageous fortune tree"—a simple phone tap was enough to unlock a journey to claim gifts.

Even before the music night began, many young people queued up in the afternoon, ready for the "courageous fortune hunt."

The festival atmosphere intensified as the stage opened with vibrant drum beats and a spring lion dance. This year's stage showcased a blend of artists from different generations, with traditional spring melodies reimagined through dynamic remix arrangements.

Electronic music, Cai Luong, and rap were juxtaposed in a collaborative performance between People's Artist Huu Quoc and Muoi, surprising and delighting the audience.

The stage continued to resonate with a series of hits from Kay Tran, presented in fresh remix versions, alongside his new song "Nam moi luon mim cuoi" (The New Year Always Smiles).

The rock-infused remix of "Ngua o thuong nho" (Missing the Black Horse) by Pham Anh Khoa and (S)Trong Trong Hieu elevated the emotions of tens of thousands of attendees to a peak.

Unexpected fortune giveaways and modernized folk games on stage dissolved the distance between artists and the audience. Pham Anh Khoa directly distributed "fortune" during interactive moments.

Beyond the music, the excitement escalated with surprise "Tiger Time" appearances on the giant LED screen. During these moments, the entire square held its breath before erupting as thousands of hands simultaneously rose to scan QR codes, participating in the on-the-spot "courageous fortune hunt".

A 50-meter scroll stretched from the stage's pinnacle to the audience amidst cheers from a sea of people. "Similar to the great fortune Tiger Beer offered its audience, the scroll carried the wish 'Khai xuan ban linh' (Courageous Spring Opening), symbolizing the strong, confident spirit for mastering the new year that the brand aims to spread," stated an organizer's representative.

The night concluded with performances by Toc Tien, featuring "Hoa co mua xuan" (Spring Flowers and Grass) and familiar hits, and Quang Hung MasterD, with his popular songs like "Tinh dau qua chen" (First Love Overindulgence) and "Anh mat biet cuoi" (Smiling Eyes). A fireworks display followed, leaving attendees with feelings of a thriving and enthusiastic new year.

Following its stop in Dong Thap, the "Courageous Fortune Hunt Square - Tiger Remix 2026" journey will continue to Nguyen Hue Walking Street, TP HCM, from 29-31/12, before heading to 10/3 Square, Dak Lak (formerly Buon Ma Thuot City), on 9-10/1/2026.
