The train station is in the heart of the city, near the Old Quarter.

- Da Nang
- Hue

get your visa
Most countries require an evisa to enter Vietnam – please don’t assume you will get visa free entry. You’ll likely be declined boarding for your flight without a visa in hand. Be sure to use the official government site to apply!
get your money
Cash is becoming less common in Vietnam. Most places, even small pho stalls, take QR payments. Moreta Pay is an app that lets you top up through Wise or Revolut and pay by QR which will be super helpful on your trip.
get your room
Hanoi’s Old Quarter is where you’ll find the chaos Vietnam is known for. Tay Ho has a more village feel and is where much of the Outlandish community lives. Wherever you stay, everything is a Grab ride away – another app you should download and set up before you arrive.
MIRAGE
Hanoi’s underground eletronic scene finds a home in Mirage. Host of the Hanoi Satellite Party, as well as Outlandish events throughout the year – it’s has the perfect rooftop to party way past sunrise.
Their IG and Facebook have all the details you need.
ARCH
Coffee and beer by the lake in the day, cocktails and DJs bringing early beats by night – that the ARCH. Cafe vibe. A longstanding Outlandish partner, you’ll find art, music and community – and some surprise gigs by Outlandish DJs in the weeks before the party.
Watch their Facebook event for the Hanoi Satellite Party and regular events.
GEIST
Geist is the home of the collective behind Outlandish. On the quiet edge of the hectic Tay Ho district, a music studio, workshop space, decks, and swimming pool are available.
In the weeks before the event, you’ll find producers, musicians, and artists sharing their skills in workshops advertised on their IG
