With fireworks illuminating the sky every night, the Pearl Island has gradually shaped a rare "experience brand": a place where fireworks not only appear on special occasions but become the daily rhythm of tourism.
As of now, Sunset Town in particular has had over 750 non-stop fireworks shows, with more than 380,000 fireworks exploding between the sea and sky of the South Island, contributing to illuminating a new development phase for Phu Quoc.

For two years, Sun Group has invested hundreds of thousands of fireworks for international-class shows such as Kiss of the Sea and Symphony of the Sea, attracting an estimated over 880,000 direct spectators in the stands, along with millions of tourists and locals admiring the fireworks every night at Sunset Town.
