The Vietnamese Family Festival 2024 aims to raise awareness across sectors and society about the family’s crucial role building and safeguarding the country, while promoting community interest in fostering warm, equal, progressive, and happy families.
During the Tet (Lunar New Year) festival, it is a tradition for Vietnamese families to put up ornamental plants outside and around their houses to liven up the atmosphere while expressing a wish for good luck, happiness, and prosperity in the new year.
Diverse activities will be organised at the Vietnamese Culture and Arts Exhibition Centre from June 28-30 to honour the traditional values of Vietnamese family, and share experience in building the family towards its sustainable development amid the integration process, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism said on June 24.
A “Mam Ngu Qua” or five-fruit tray is indispensable for each Vietnamese family as among the numerous offerings that are required to decorate ancestral altars during the traditional Lunar New Year (Tet) festival.
Like most other nations in Asia, Vietnamese people welcome the New Year according to the lunar calendar, and Tet Nguyen Dan (the lunar New Year Day) has long become the biggest festival of the nation.
The Party and State pursue a consistent policy of protecting, caring for and educating children, Pre. Tran Dai Quang said, stressing that investing in children is to invest in the nation’s future.
