1. Introduction to Show After Glow Ba Na Hills
1.1. Show After Glow – Highlight of Ba Na By Night
Show After Glow Ba Na Hills (After Glow) is a prominent art program within the Ba Na By Night experience chain, bringing a completely different color when night falls on Chua Mountain peak. Organized at Beer Plaza, the show combines Cabaret stage, music, dance, lighting, and culinary space into a harmonious whole, opening a multi-sensory entertainment experience for visitors aged 18 and above.
The combination of a novel artistic concept, a meticulously invested stage, and the magical atmosphere of Ba Na at night has quickly made the After Glow show a highly anticipated highlight for many tourists. It is also one of the special experiences that enrich the Ba Na By Night journey, alongside culinary activities and the sparkling European architectural space when lit up.
1.2. Artistic story inspired by the beauty of Ba Na at night
The point that creates the attraction of Show After Glow lies in the artistic story built from the magical beauty of Ba Na Hills after sunset. Inspired by the image of Queen Marie Antoinette and the French royal setting, the program leads the audience into a world where power, luxury, passion, and inner secrets intertwine, creating many emotional levels throughout the performance.

The storyline is connected by the character Lovelark – the Royal Jester who leads the journey of discovery, while also opening up the confrontation between the Black Queen and the Red Queen, representing opposing desires and egos. Through music, dance, fashion, and visual effects, the show immerses viewers in an art space rich in depth, where each scene contributes to depicting the magnificent yet mysterious beauty of Ba Na Hills as night falls.
2. What makes the Ba Na Hills After Glow Show so captivating?
2.1. Captivating stage effects
One of the elements that creates the signature of the Ba Na Hills After Glow show is the introduction of Cabaret art – a famous theatrical form originating from France – to Ba Na By Night. At Beer Plaza, the restaurant space is transformed into a 360-degree stage, where music, dance, acting, fashion, and lighting technology blend to tell an enchanting story. This combination creates a feeling as if the audience is stepping into the world of the performance itself, rather than simply sitting and enjoying a show.
The show's distinctiveness also lies in its use of visual and sound effects to guide emotions. Each scene is meticulously crafted from lighting, colors, to stage movements, helping to create a multi-sensory experience rich in artistry. The modern, expressive dance routines and the magical atmosphere of Beer Plaza at night contribute to creating a unique Ba Na night dance show, both free-spirited and sophisticated.
2.2. The mark of director Vit Den and international artists
Behind the show's success is choreographer Duc Viet (Vit Den) – a familiar name in many art stages and major entertainment programs in Vietnam. With After Glow, director Vit Den builds each scene with an emotionally rich language of movement, combining modern staging techniques with the ability to tell stories through dance, creating a seamless and captivating whole from beginning to end.
The characters' costumes are elaborately invested with inspiration from the standard noble style
Besides, the show gathers a cast of international artists along with Drag Queen artists and two Thai transgender beauty queens, bringing a fresh performance color to the Ba Na Hills stage. The characters' costumes are also elaborately invested with inspiration from the Rococo noble style, combined with the sensual lines of Boudoir, contributing to clearly portraying each character's personality and creating stunning visuals throughout the program.
2.3. Art exclusively for the evening on top of Ba Na
As the lights gradually illuminate the French Village and Beer Plaza, Ba Na Hills takes on a completely different appearance, becoming an ideal backdrop for the After Glow Show to tell its emotional artistic story. The program is currently performed at two time slots: 3:00 PM – 3:30 PM and 7:00 PM – 7:30 PM (except Tuesdays), making it easy for visitors to arrange their schedules to combine sightseeing, culinary enjoyment, and nighttime entertainment experiences.
This is a particularly suitable choice for visitors participating in Ba Na By Night or staying overnight on Ba Na peak, as it allows more time to feel the magical beauty of the tourist area after sunset. With content and performance style in a contemporary Cabaret style, it promises to bring a different and emotional night of art amidst the mountainous forest at night.
3. Combine experiencing other interesting activities when staying overnight at Ba Na
3.1. Experience the cable car amidst Ba Na at night
Visitors can continue to experience the cable car in the night scenery – a completely different perspective compared to daytime. As the cabin gently glides along the mountainside, the lights from the tourist area gradually blend into the night and the quiet forest areas, creating a relaxing and peaceful feeling amidst nature.
This is also one of the distinctive highlights of Ba Na By Night, as visitors do not always have the opportunity to admire Ba Na Hills from above when the city in the distance begins to light up and Chua Mountain peak is immersed in a magical atmosphere. The night cable car journey concludes the experience gently, leaving behind the lingering impression of a Ba Na Hills that is both brilliant with art and romantic amidst the mountainous forest after sunset.
3.2. Enjoy cuisine and performances at Beer Plaza
One of the ways to fully enjoy the After Glow Ba Na Hills show is to combine it with dinner right at Beer Plaza – where the performance takes place. In a European-style space, visitors can enjoy a buffet with a diverse Asian-European menu, characteristic beers and drinks, while immersing themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of Ba Na By Night.
When the show begins, Beer Plaza transforms into an art stage, where all senses are awakened by music, lights, dance, and emotional performances. The combination of cuisine and art makes dinner a complete entertainment experience, leaving an unforgettable impression on the journey to discover Ba Na Hills at night.
3.3. Continue exploring Ba Na Hills after the show ends
After the program concludes, visitors can take a stroll through the French Village as the ancient structures are lit up. The warm yellow light covers the squares, castles, and cobblestone streets, creating a romantic scene, perfect for walking and capturing photos with a completely different vibe than during the day.

Choosing Ba Na By Night or staying overnight will give tourists more time to enjoy the Show After Glow, explore Ba Na Hills when night falls, and welcome the sunrise amidst the sea of clouds the next morning.
4. Some notes when experiencing Ba Na Hills After Glow Show
To fully enjoy the Ba Na Hills After Glow show, tourists should note that the program is designed for audiences aged 18 and above with a modern Cabaret style, combining music, dance, and performance art. Before attending, you should also update the performance schedule daily as the times may be adjusted according to the resort's operational plan.
The evenings on Chua Mountain peak are usually cooler than in the center of Da Nang, especially after sunset. Therefore, a light jacket will help you feel more comfortable when moving between Beer Plaza, the French Village, and outdoor areas. At the same time, prioritize sneakers or flat shoes for convenient walking and exploring Ba Na Hills in the evening.
To make your journey more complete, you can combine watching the show with the Ba Na By Night experience package or choose to stay overnight at Ba Na Hills. After the show ends, don't miss the opportunity to stroll through the brightly lit French Village, admire the night scenery of Chua Mountain peak, and experience the cable car in a magical atmosphere before concluding an emotional evening.
When night falls, Ba Na Hills takes on a completely different appearance, where art becomes a bridge connecting the audience's emotions through many surprising levels. The Ba Na Hills After Glow Show is therefore not just a performance, but also a highlight that completes the Ba Na By Night journey with unforgettable stories, images, and moments. If you have the chance to explore Ba Na in the evening, take the time to feel the "After Glow" and capture a very different perspective of Chua Mountain peak after sunset.
