Main Points
The inaugural Asia Visionary Summit is set to conclude on 8 November 2026 with the "Raven Concert" at Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu. The event, which organizers expect to draw more than 10,000 attendees, will feature a mix of international and Bhutanese performers, as well as what is described as the country’s first large-scale drone show. The concert follows two days of summit proceedings held at Dungkar Dzong in Paro. Operating under the theme “Enlightened Prosperity,” the summit aims to explore the intersection of technological development, environmental responsibility, and human wellbeing. The discussions are organized into three chapters: "The Inner Frontier," focusing on health and purpose; "The Age of Intelligence," addressing artificial intelligence and ethics; and "The Living Earth," covering conservation and climate action. While the summit is expected to host fewer than 500 participants from various sectors, the final concert is intended to provide broader public access to the event’s themes. The musical lineup includes international artists such as pianist Tony Yike Yang and singer-songwriter Leven Kali. Bhutanese performers scheduled to appear include Baeyul, Pelden Wangchuk, Karma Drupchu, and the Sangay Lhaden Band. The program also features a cross-cultural collaboration between Fran Bak and Karma Yonten, utilizing the traditional Bhutanese dramnyen lute alongside the gong. A highlight of the evening will be a synchronized aerial display by Nova Sky Stories, an international firm specializing in drone performances. The display will involve programmed drones creating patterns and images above the stadium, intended to complement the musical performances. As of 27 October, specific details regarding the number of drones and the duration of the show had not been released. Tickets for the Raven Concert are priced at Nu 315 for Bhutanese residents and USD 3.15 for international attendees. Access to the summit itself is available through separate registration, with subsidized passes offered to Bhutanese nationals for Nu 5,000 and a standard international rate of USD 1,750. Organizers have noted that further details, including the concert’s start time and the full performance schedule, will be announced closer to the event date. In conjunction with the summit, the National Museum of Bhutan in Paro will host "Heritage & Hues" from 5 to 7 November. This art market and fundraiser, organized by MICE Bhutan, will feature local handicrafts, food, and traditional art demonstrations, with proceeds supporting the Museums of Bhutan.
