The approved task of the Da Nang city master plan to 2050 with a vision to 2075 marks a particularly important milestone, providing the basis to prepare the Da Nang master planning project after the city’s consolidation – a metropolis with the largest scale among centrally administered cities nationwide. On April 6, 2026, Deputy Prime Minister Trần Hồng Hà signed and issued Decision No. 628/QĐ-TTg approving the Da Nang master plan task to 2050 with a vision to 2075. The planning scope covers the entire new administrative boundary of Da Nang, spanning about 11,859 square kilometers (including maritime space). To the north it borders Hue city, to the south it borders Quảng Ngãi province, to the west it borders the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, and to the east it borders the East Sea. The planning objective is to guide the overall spatial development of the city after the consolidation, ensuring territorial organization, urban-rural structure, a system of centers, underground space and a coherent development infrastructure framework; developing balanced growth between the East region (coastal plain) and the West region (mountainous, midland, minority areas); leveraging the strengths of each region; developing in line with preserving and promoting heritage values, natural values, and sustainability; serving as legal basis to implement subordinate plans, manage urban-rural development, manage investment in construction, and implement programs and development plans in phases. The plan’s objective is to build Da Nang into a modern, smart, livable, and distinctive city; a major growth pole for the nation; a center at national and regional level for logistics, finance, high-tech industry, tourism and innovation; a center of tourism, heritage, culture, sports, education and high-quality healthcare; developing a green urban growth that adapts to climate change; ensuring firm defense, security, and sovereignty of the sea and islands. The 2075 vision: Da Nang becomes an ecological, modern, smart city with a rich identity; the city will be attractive, safe, and livable on an international scale. Notably, the development orientation is no longer based on a monocentric model, but reorganizes space into a multi-centered, multi-polar structure, closely linking coastal – plains – mountainous areas; urban – industrial – service – ecology. At the same time, the planning also defines Da Nang’s role as a national and international strategic transport hub, connecting the East-West Economic Corridor, the port system, airports, and cross-regional axes. Importantly, the schedule for preparing the project is set at no more than 15 months from the time the planning consultancy is selected to the submission to the planning appraisal agency as required. The city’s objective is to complete this task by June 2026. This is a very fast pace for a planning project of large scale, complexity, and high integration requirements, reflecting the government’s and the city’s determination to early shape the space of Da Nang’s new era. The approval of the planning task is not merely a procedural step, but a strategic 'problem-setting' stage that determines the quality and direction of the entire project. In the context of Da Nang after consolidation facing a comprehensive restructuring—from space, infrastructure to growth models—this is the foundation for the city to break through, maximize the advantages of scale, location, and regional links.

Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
