Vietnamese New Year, also known as Tet Nguyen Dan (Tet Festival), is the most important festival in Vietnam. It celebrates the beginning of a new year on the Vietnamese calendar as well the coming of spring. In 2024, it falls on February 10th. The celebrations take place from February 9th (Tet Eve) to February 14th, 2024.
During the New Year, people will greet and wish each other happiness, good luck, health, and prosperity. Usually, people greet and send wishes in the morning of the first day of the new year. The easiest and most commonly used greetings during Tet are "Chúc mừng Năm Mới!" ('Happy New Year!') and "Cung hỉ phát tài!" ('Congratulations and prosper!').
China Highlights, Asia Highlights, and Global Highlights collaborate to provide families and couples with personalized and stress-free experiences in diverse destinations.
