In 2025, the 'Tet Viet (Vietnamese Lunar New Year)' event held in Saitama brought a warm and moving atmosphere to the Vietnamese community living and working in Japan away from their homeland. This was not just a New Year's gathering, but a valuable opportunity for people living far away to reaffirm and share their roots and traditional values.

A Warm Space Recreating the Tet of Hometown

The event venue was vividly decorated with the colors of Vietnam's traditional Tet, featuring red couplets (Câu đối đỏ), plum blossoms, peach blossoms, and the aroma of bánh chưng. Visitors were enveloped in a sensation as if they had stumbled into a small town in Vietnam.

In addition to traditional food stalls, performances of lion dances and folk music were showcased, creating a lively spring atmosphere. For many young people and families who participated, this event became a place where they could feel peace of mind and the warmth of home amidst their busy days in Japan.
