Bài Chòi is a combination of arts in Central Vietnam including music, poetry, acting, painting and literature,[1][2] providing recreation, entertainment and socialising within village communities.[3] It was Inscribed on the UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list in 2017.[1][4] Bài Chòi was recognised as Vietnam's national intangible cultural heritage during 2014-2016 by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.[5]
Bài Chòi games and performance involve a card game similar to bingo, played with songs and music performed by Hieu artists, during the Tết Nguyên Đán.[6][7] In Hội An, Quang Nam, Bai Choi singing classes have been opened for secondary school students.[8]
The bài chòi culture has also been introduced in Japan and in Germany.[9][10]
