These newly announced events replace the previously scheduled APT Ho Chi Minh 2023, which has been postponed until further clarity is available regarding the regulatory environment.
APT President Neil Johnson expressed his excitement for the upcoming events, stating:
“Last year, the APT had a tremendous summer in Vietnam with a double stop in Hanoi and a fantastic event in Ho Chi Minh City. Now we’re back to celebrate part of the summer in Vietnam again, returning to Grand Loyal in Hanoi and then packing our beach gear for Furama Resort in Da Nang! Once we get all the sand out of our luggage, it is time to fight for a million again, only this time in Incheon. It will surely be a summer to remember!”
