- What if play could change the way we learn, work and connect?- What if the next big idea doesn’t come from following the rules, but from daring to play with them?
Play is more than a childhood pastime. It’s a powerful way to spark creativity, challenge assumptions, explore new possibilities and see the world differently.
At TEDxHanoi PLAY 2026, we’re bringing this idea to life through an afternoon of thought-provoking talks, inspiring performances and interactive experiences that invite you to rethink what play can make possible.
As TEDxHanoi’s only event of 2026, this exclusive gathering will bring together 300 curious minds for an experience that goes beyond the stage. Discover fresh perspectives on creativity, learning, innovation and human connection, meet people who challenge the way you think, and explore ideas worth bringing into your everyday life.
More than a day of talks. An experience to be part of.
