This year's Tam Chuc Spring Festival will be held over two days, February 20-21 (corresponding to the 11th and 12th days of the first lunar month of the Year of the Dragon). To date, all preparations for the festival are basically complete, and it is ready to officially open.
This year's Tam Chuc Spring Festival program is divided into two parts. On the evening of February 20th (the 11th day of the first lunar month), a fashion show titled "Wishing in a Sacred Place" and a fireworks display will take place in front of the Vesak International Convention Center (Water Pavilion) to celebrate the festival. The official opening ceremony will be held on the morning of February 21st (the 12th day of the first lunar month). A key difference this year compared to previous years is the change of venue from the inner gate to the Vesak International Convention Center, and the addition of the " World's Leading Local Cultural Destination" award ceremony from representatives of the World Travel Awards.
At the same time, the water procession ceremony will begin from the boat dock at the Vesak International Convention Center, moving to the middle of Tam Chuc Lake to perform the ritual of collecting sacred water, then transferring it onto a water-carrying vehicle to three locations: Tam The Temple, Ngoc Pagoda, and Ba Sao Ancient Pagoda.
According to our reporter's observations, the Tam Chuc Tourist Area Management Board has coordinated with the functional forces of Kim Bang district to develop a plan to guide and manage traffic flow, ensuring traffic safety for visitors during the spring festival. They have also arranged boats and buses to serve tourists, avoiding congestion, and have set up multiple points for ticket sales and consultation, combining online payment options with publicly displaying all fees and service prices.
The Tam Chuc Spring Festival is a manifestation of the vibrant vitality of our ancestral culture. The festival serves both as a place to express the Vietnamese people's principle of "drinking water, remembering the source" and as an environment for educating the younger generation about historical and cultural traditions, contributing to fostering pride and love for their homeland.
