HCM City (VNA) – Ho Chi Minh City is set to embark on 2025 with the City Tet Fest Thu Duc that lasts from December 28 to January 1, 2025.

According to the People’s Committee of the local Thu Duc city, the event, to be held annually, promises to be a vibrant multi-experience that combines the elements of culture, community, technology, and sustainability.

It will feature two concert nights on December 28 and 31, bringing together talented international artists and Vietnam's top singers. There will also be the "See You Tet Sound" exhibition – an innovative art initiative created as a space for young artists to experiment with ideas, blending the cultural essence of the traditional New Year festival with a contemporary language.

Nguyen Ky Phung, Vice Chairman of the Thu Duc People’s Committee said the City Tet Fest is expected to spread values of modernity, civilisation, and creativity, while honouring Vietnam’s traditional heritages.

He noted that it seeks to boost year-end demand for shopping, entertainment, and leisure among locals, gradually positioning itself as a key tourism attraction in Thu Duc and HCM City./.
