On Saturday, March 28, 2026, the International Rugby Festival "Hanoi 10s" was held in Hanoi. This event, held annually, is known as an exchange tournament where teams from all over Vietnam and Asia participate, and the venue was bustling with many spectators and players from morning until evening.
This format, called "10s", features fewer players than the usual 15-a-side rugby, and is characterized by fast-paced action. The matches progress at a brisk pace, and there were many scenes where the audience cheered at intense tackles and spectacular plays. The rules are relatively easy to understand even for beginners, making it appealing for visitors who are new to watching rugby.
In addition to food and drink booths, music and DJ performances were also held at the venue, and the entire venue was filled with a festival-like atmosphere. Many people were seen enjoying the event by relaxing on the grass, while others came to visit with their families or friends; the sense of unity inherent in this open space was evident.
With the players and spectators close together and the opportunity to interact after the match, this is one of the attractions of this sporting event: beyond nationality and generation, the connection through rugby creates a community. “Hanoi 10s,” an international event that brings together participants from many countries and generations, is expected to attract even more participants in future editions.
