The athletes will compete in 107 events of six sports namely swimming, athletics, badminton, basketball, Pencak Silat, and Vovinam.

The city's authorities and relevant agencies completed preparations for the Games. Streets and the ASG venues across the city have been decorated to welcome the athletes.

Tran Cong Tu, Director of the Da Nang Sports Centre, said that the centre is assigned to organise the flag raising ceremony, ASG opening and closing ceremonies and five venues for swimming, athletics, Vovinam, Pencak Silat and badminton.
