The "Convergence" Week in Thu Duc City, sponsored by SonKim Group, promises to be the most attractive destination for the New Year.

Sunflowers were chosen as the symbol of Thu Duc City, symbolizing the continuous development and forward movement of a young city.

From December 23, 2023 to January 1, 2024, Ho Chi Minh City residents and tourists will have the opportunity to experience a series of unique and vibrant activities at the Cultural and Art Experience Week called "Convergence" of Thu Duc City. Taking place at the Saigon Riverside Park area on the Thu Thiem peninsula, this series of events to welcome the New Year promises to bring the most memorable and interesting experiences at the end of this year.

Launched by the People's Committee of Thu Duc City, along with strategic sponsor SonKim Group, the "Thu Duc Convergence" Week will bring a bustling and vibrant cultural, entertainment and community connection party for residents and visitors. With the name "Convergence", the event is like an invitation for everyone to gather in Thu Duc, a place where the quintessence, colors and beautiful sounds gather. In addition, the name also shows the identity and attraction of this Eastern city, a place full of modern vitality and interwoven with cultural heritage values.

Ms. Bui Thi Phuong Hien - CEO of SonKim Land, Representative of SonKim Group shared: “The Thu Duc City Cultural and Art Experience Week not only spreads modern, civilized and creative values but also honors the heritage and traditional values of Thu Duc City. Heritage has always been one of the values that SonKim Group cherishes and maintains throughout 3 decades of operation. That is the common point and also an important source of motivation for SonKim Group to accompany the Thu Duc City government to create a unique and meaningful event, bringing memorable experiences to people and visitors on the occasion of Tet holiday”.

A new address for spectacular cultural and community events in Ho Chi Minh City

The “Convergence” Week was created with the vision of turning Thu Duc City into an interesting cultural center and destination, attracting all people in the community to come and immerse themselves in the dynamic appearance of the young and creative city. Also this year, Thu Duc City, with the support of SonKim Group, brought to the community the first annual running competition called Son Kim Thu Duc City 2023.
