Booked the Thang Long Water Puppet Show through Headout during our Hanoi family trip and it turned out to be one of the highlights of the evening. The booking process was seamless, tickets were instantly confirmed, and entry at the theatre was smooth even with a young child. The performance itself was colorful, cultural, and surprisingly engaging for both adults and kids. My 5-year-old was completely captivated by the live music, traditional puppetry, and storytelling despite not understanding the language. The show is around 50 minutes, which felt perfect for families. I’d recommend arriving 20-30 minutes early for better seating and combining it with a walk around Hoan Kiem Lake afterward. Overall, a very memorable cultural experience and a hassle-free booking experience with Headout.

Super spectacle à voir au moins une fois dans sa vie. Le gros problème vient des touristes qui n’ont absolument aucun respect pour les artistes. Ça se lève, ça change de places, ça parle fort, ça prend des photos en levant les bras… franchement honteux. L’audioguide est utile pour comprendre le spectacle mais il pourrait être amélioré : il ne tient pas bien sur l’oreille et les explications sont un peu incompréhensibles par moment. L’idéal serait peut être des sous-titres en anglais directement dans la salle ?

Lovely performance. Quite unique for us as we have never seen water puppets before. Audio guide helped us understand the context a bit more. Would definitely recommend this.

Very nice performance. Music coupled with puppet show offered a quite art form, and the ambience was near perfect. Just one input- leg space btw rows is extremely less. People who are above 5'10'' height cannot even sit properly. You may pls consider increasing the space a bit. Thanks

Amazing show. Absolutely recommend it both for adults and kids if you're in Hanoi. It was very straightforward to the get the tickets, which in our case we got directly from the agency which is just a couple of minutes from the theatre.
