Hue bustles with excitement for Tet

From February 7 to 15, 2026 (corresponding to the 20th to 28th days of the Lunar December of the Year of At Ty), the People’s Committee of Hoa Chau Ward will organize the “Hoa Chau Tet Festival” along Bao Vinh Pedestrian Street. The event will feature a wide range of distinctive cultural and community activities, helping to create a lively and joyful atmosphere for residents in celebration of the traditional Tet holiday of Binh Ngo 2026.

Defining the fields and products of innovative startups is crucial for developing the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem and enhancing the scientific and technological position of Hue City. In an interview with Hue Today Weekly, Ms. Tran Thi Thuy Yen, Deputy Director of the Department of Science and Technology, emphasized that innovation and entrepreneurship in Hue is shifting strongly from a movement to depth, from ideas to products that create real value.

On the morning of January 23, Hue City Red Cross Society, in coordination with Vietnam Fatherland Front Committees of Phu Loc and Vinh Loc Communes, organized a program to distribute Lunar New Year gifts for the Spring of Binh Ngo 2026 (the Year of Horse) to poor and near-poor households, families in difficult circumstances, and those severely affected by natural disasters in 2025 in Phu Loc and Vinh Loc Communes. The program was funded by support from Thien Tam Fund of Vingroup.

In Hue, the traditional Lunar New Year “Tet” does not arrive with fanfare. It begins quietly in the kitchen, from a pot of banh tet (a cylindrical sticky rice cake with mung beans and pork) glowing over the fire, from the warm scent of ginger, from a jar of mixed pickled vegetables. Just by looking at these dishes, people in Hue know that Tet is very near.

Nearly 200 children with disabilities took part in a series of activities as part of the program “Tet - Connecting Love”, designed for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
