Hanoi (VNA) – The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has selected a design by To Minh Trang from Hanoi as the official logo for the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution's success (August 19, 1945–2025) and the National Day (September 2, 1945–2025).

The logo will be used in all official communication activities marking the historic milestones.

It features a stylised image of President Ho Chi Minh reading the Declaration of Independence on September 2, 1945, at Hanoi's Ba Dinh Square, marking the birth of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam). Using bold graphic forms and dramatic light contrasts, the design conveys the solemn atmosphere, profound historical significance, and overwhelming joy shared by the Vietnamese people on the nation’s first Independence Day.

The logo is rendered in red, symbolising Vietnam’s long-standing patriotic tradition throughout its history of nation-building and defence. Red also represents the sacred national flag colour, the spirit of heroic struggle, and the unwavering aspiration for independence and freedom.

It features the dates August 19 and September 2, 1945–2025, highlighting two historic milestones – the success of the August Revolution and the National Day of Vietnam.

The background of the logo features the fluttering red flag with a yellow star. The number "80" is designed with a sense of motion, representing eight decades of a transformative and glorious journey since the birth of the nation, which has been recognised worldwide for its proud and historic milestones, strong development, and strides to confidently enter a new era – that of the nation’s rise.

The number “80” is rendered in a warm yellow-orange tone, symbolising the enduring solidarity of the Vietnamese people and their steadfast trust in the Party. It also reflects the spirit of unity and loyalty among compatriots and comrades, as well as Vietnam’s spirit of pure international solidarity – a form of “soft power” that makes Vietnam a symbolic country of peace and hospitality./.
