[Live] Closing Ceremony and Award Presentation for the "Impressive Vietnam Tourism" Video/Clip Creation Contest 2025

On the evening of December 17th, in Hanoi, the Center for Digital Transformation of Culture, Sports and Tourism (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) collaborated with relevant units to organize the Closing Ceremony and Award Presentation for the "Impressive Vietnamese Tourism" Video/Clip Creation Contest 2025.

In the context of increasingly fierce competition in international tourism, digital media has become a strategic tool for promoting the national image quickly and effectively. Video clips, with their ability to evoke emotions in just seconds, have become the "common language" of modern tourism. Following this trend, the "Impressive Vietnam Tourism" Video Clip Creation Contest 2025 is organized to inspire creativity within the community and to spread the beauty of the country through authentic, vivid, and emotionally rich images.

After more than three months since its launch (from August 13th to November 15th), the "Impressive Vietnam Tourism " 2025 Video/Clip Creation Contest received nearly 1,000 entries, including over 500 short videos/clips and over 400 longer videos/clips. This demonstrates the widespread interest of the public, tourism professionals, content creators, and international tourists.

The submitted works are diverse and rich in emotion and perspective on the beauty of Vietnam. They include images of majestic nature, millennia-old cultural heritage, and relatable stories and everyday life, all deeply rooted in Vietnamese identity. Thanks to this diversity, the image of Vietnam in the eyes of international friends is not confined to familiar symbols, but opens up a broader space – where each region has its own story, its own value, and its own unique appeal.

According to the judging panel, the quality of this year's entries was quite outstanding, reflecting the serious work ethic, systematic investment, and clear creative thinking of the authors. Many videos showed meticulous preparation: building a coherent script, selecting locations suitable for the story, using emotionally rich camera angles, and intentionally combining sound and music to enhance the message.

In particular, the young creative force continues to make a strong impression. Not only are they tech-savvy and sensitive to trends, but these young people also bring unique, energetic, bold, yet emotionally resonant storytelling styles. These works clearly demonstrate the "signature" of youth: fresh visual language, modern visual thinking, and an eagerness to explore – to tell a Vietnamese story in their own unique way. Through this, they provide a visually stunning experience for viewers and demonstrate the Vietnamese youth's ability to quickly adapt to new media trends.

At the ceremony, the Organizing Committee will award 24 official prizes along with many supplementary prizes with a total prize value of over 600 million VND, including: 1 First Prize, 2 Second Prizes, 3 Third Prizes, and 5 Consolation Prizes in the short video/clip category; and 1 First Prize, 2 Second Prizes, 5 Third Prizes, and 5 Consolation Prizes in the long video/clip category.
