On October 11, NEU Concert—the largest music festival welcoming new students at National Economics University (NEU)—took place with lively acts, electrifying performances, and emotional moments.

In 2025, NEU Concert returned on a grand scale with the theme BURST OF SPEED and the message: “Feel free to enter your own race, without having to follow the crowd. Dare to be yourself and choose your own pace to begin a new journey in your own way.”

In the lead-up to the 70th anniversary of National Economics University, NEU Concert 2025 featured carefully designed visuals and sound, with guest singers Phung Khanh Linh, Anh Tu, Vu, and Bui Cong Nam, alongside performances by NEU clubs and teams.

The event was a meaningful gift from National Economics University to its new K67 students, marking the beginning of their colorful university journey ahead.

At the start of the program, students took part in engaging and rewarding hands-on activities. At the sponsors’ booths, a variety of creative interactive activities offered students new experiences.

Challenge games, opportunities to try products, engaging minigames, and countless charming and meaningful gifts attracted large numbers of students.

The organizers also prepared numerous game areas and group activities specifically for new students. The games were designed both to entertain and to encourage teamwork and creativity. Although bouts of heavy rain caused some difficulties in the morning, they could not dampen the new students’ enthusiasm.
