The program followed a route from Le Duan Street through Cong Xa Paris, Dong Khoi, Le Thanh Ton, and Nguyen Hue, ending at Bach Dang Wharf Park – home to the International Friendship Symbol. This route required an exceptionally meticulous organizational process, especially road blocking, overnight construction, and precise setup timing to ensure safety, consistency, and minimal disruption to local residents.

During several weeks of preparation, the QMK Group team oversaw every detail: branding design, stage construction, sound and lighting systems, POSM, manpower coordination, reception, and event security. The continuous 48-hour construction sprint leading up to the event stands as a testament to the team’s dedication and ability to manage high-intensity timelines, an essential requirement in hosting diplomatic events.

This was not only a community sports activity but also an opportunity to reflect on Vietnam’s proud 80-year diplomatic journey. Every step taken at the event symbolized unity, friendship, and the ambition of the foreign affairs sector as it advances into a new era.
