Hanoi (VNA) – Domestic firms are being encouraged to roll out tour packages to the 2025 Autumn Fair, slated for October 26 - November 4 at the National Exposition Centre in Hanoi’s outlying Dong Anh commune, aiming to draw both domestic and foreign visitors while showcasing a dynamic, innovative and globally connected Vietnam.
The fair will open daily from 9 am to 10 pm, offering free admission and ample parking. For those navigating from central Hanoi, a complimentary shuttle service, bus route No. 34, will ferry them to the fairgrounds throughout its ten-day run.
Billed as a “mega fair,” the event is poised to be Vietnam’s largest of its kind, hosting over 2,500 exhibitors from within the country and beyond. Exhibition spaces will be divided into five distinct zones, each reflecting aspects of Vietnamese cultural identity.
The “Prosperous Autumn” zone will be all about industrial, commercial, and service products, while the “Family Autumn” will offer a vibrant array of consumer goods, top retail and mall brands, and interior and exterior décor. The “Vietnamese Land – Autumn Essence” zone will display signature products from provinces nationwide, many bearing coveted certifications and geographical indications that speak to their authenticity.
The “Hanoi Autumn Essence” zone is where the capital shines, showing off its finest industrial and commercial products; One Commune, One Product (OCOP) items and traditional handicrafts, alongside creative installations, cultural, tourism and culinary showcases, product demonstrations, trade networking spaces and artistic exhibits reflecting the capital’s heritage.
The “Essence of Vietnamese Culture” zone, meanwhile, will present and commercialise products from 12 cultural industries, including film, music, performing arts, fine arts, publishing, broadcasting, fashion, cuisine, tourism and sports.
Each zone will feature its own mini autumn vibe, mixing product displays with live music and cultural experiences. A key attraction will be 50 booths dedicated to tourism and travel companies, where visitors can explore distinctive travel packages and compelling promotional offers./.
