The Hanoi Department of Tourism has announced that the 2025 edition of the Tourism Gift Festival will take place from April 11 to 13 at the pedestrian zone on Tran Nhan Tong Street and surrounding areas in Hai Ba Trung District.

The event will spotlight the capital’s most iconic craft villages, showcasing exceptional handmade products and honoring two heritage sites: Bat Trang pottery village and Van Phuc silk village.

The festival also aims to expand regional tourism connections by featuring destinations such as Co To Island (Quang Ninh province) and Phu Yen province, with dedicated spaces to introduce their tourism offerings.

A standout highlight will be a special showcase of Phu Yen’s tourism and cultural identity, including a live demonstration and tasting of dishes made with oceanic tuna, scheduled for 6 PM on April 12.

According to the organizers, the festival is an annual tourism stimulus campaign, promoting the capital as a safe, friendly, high-quality, and attractive destination under the slogan “Hanoi – Come to love”.

Alongside the Pho Festival 2025 (April 18–20 at the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long), this event also contributes to the celebrations of National Tourism Year 2025.

The Hanoi Tourism Gift Festival is part of a larger citywide program marking the 50th anniversary of the liberation of southern Vietnam and national reunification (April 30, 1975 – April 30, 2025).
